Looking for HD connecting rods for TT project I have been gathering my parts for my Darton 427 TT motor that is going in my Chevy 2 Pro Touring car. Time to buy the connecting rods! Just looking for some opinions as to which options are the best to take. I am very pro Carrillo, as I have used quite a few of there rods in many LS projects. Someone had recommended the Eagle H-beams but I am a bit concerned for a $400 set of rods dealing with 1000-1200 FWHP.
Kurt (W2W), what are you using in that big HP 402??

Just wanted to see what else is out there. Always looking to mix it up snd try some new stuff. Most of the motors that I build have never been more the 800 hp. This project is considerly more.

That car uses eagle forged off the shelf rods. 1200+++ RWHP. One of the fastest blow-thru carb cars in the world, he's duking it out with Filipowski for the fastest in the world. Personally I think eagles are strong enough, but if you want more power the olivers or carillo rods are nice pieces.
