ARP 2000 bolts are standard unless noted otherwise.
NOTE: All Rods have 7/16 Rod Bolts (exc. SBC w/Honda
Journals which have 3/8 rod bolts) |

Connecting Rods

Designed and produced with engineering and finishing advancements,
Compstar connecting rods have what it takes to
make your engine build trouble-free and your finished product
reliable. Produced from heat treated and stress relieved
4340 material, our H-beam Compstar rods are fully machined with a
shot blasted Stress Riser free surface. Finished and
sized in our plant in Ohio, every detail of this highly stressed
component has been carefully analyzed to maximize
repeatability and dependability. ARP 2000 bolts are standard. All
lengths are stroker clearanced. See for yourself why
Compstar can improve your bottom line and reputation!
Based on feedback from a variety of highly regarded professional
engine builders, Compstar engineers set out to address the most
common issues associated with many aftermarket connecting rods:
Big End Bore Sizing
Compstar rods maintain dimensional
repeatability through use of a lengthy stress relief process, and
multiple re-torque processing. The combination of the release of
residual machining stresses and burnishing of threads and bolt
spotfaces ensure that big end bores stay round regardless of how
many times your rods are disassembled and re-assembled.
Preparation Time
Compstar connecting rods have the most common prep
work already done for you! Pin bushings are chamfered and honed for proper
high performance oil clearance. Parting line edges are generously
chamfered to resist scraping during insertion of the bearing shells.
The bearing locating tab slots are de-burred to ensure the bearing
tab is fully seated for trouble free installation.
No Costly Upgrades
Compstar rods were designed with higher HP stroker motors in mind
from the start. Bolt upgrades and stroker clearance (normally additional cost options with other
MFG's rods), are standard with Compstar rods.
Reduced Weight
The Compstar engineering staff has worked very hard at reducing
weight without sacrificing strength and durability. 3D solid
modeling software has enabled us to refine our design while
monitoring predicted weight, resulting in a very high strength to
weight ratio. |
