Ok some of you know that i am doing my own rebuild of a forged bottom end. So far i am goin w/ 3.905 Diamond Pistons .927 wrist pins and use a 6.125 connecting rod.

On Texas Speed they advertise Crower connecting rods at a resonable price anyone using them or hvae comments about them?

 

Crower makes an Excellent product. I have not built an ls1 with them but I have built a few sbc's wuth their rods and cranks.

Crower does make good stuff,their rods are supposed to be topnotch!Btw Crower is making a stroker ls1 crank too!

 

I am having TTP install them in my new block.

 

I've got Crower Billet's in my short block, 6.125"

They are heavy though, it took alot of metal to balance my crank w/ those rods and the JE pistons.

 

We stock the Crower rods & use them alot. They are ls1 specific rods instead of a sbc rod stuffed into a ls1!!

 

Crower makes a very nice rod for the LS1. We have sold a very large amount and havn't had any problems. Crower is one of the few companies that understand that an LS1 uses a different design rod than the standard SBC.

 

Crower rods are excellent!! I have them in my SBC...No problems!!

 

Anybody know the weight of them? Out of curiosity. The crower website says around 625grams and I think the lunati are around 615. I dont know with or without pins.

 

i think i am gion to use them then, I would put in the Lunati's but I am not goin out to make huge HP#'s just want to add some reliablitly to my current setup

thanx guys

 

Let me know if you need a set, I have them in stock and can give you a great price!!!
