Is there a company that makes a forged 6.100" connecting rod for our engines? I am rebuilding my motor and I want to throw some forged pistons and rods in there.

 

Lunati makes rods for the LS1

 

Eagle makes a great connecting rod ~$480 per set.

 

Lunati does not make a 6.100" rod for our application. I went with the eagle rods from Scoggin Dickey. Thanks guys

 

Manley makes a very nice stock length rod. I have used 2 sets. Dyno

 

Eagle H beam rods are 6.100 with a .927 pin. I have a set on my floor waiting to go in. All for only $480 like said above! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

 

Is the stock lenth 6.000? If so, why go to a 6.100? Just curious so I know what to look for when I'm ready..

Thanks,
Dan

 

6.125 Oliver pro billet rods is what I went with, $1000.00 set.. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I just put the Lunati Pro-Mod 6.125" rod in my new 346ci motor with JE forged pistons. If I had some extra $$, the Oliver rods would have been my choice. Very nice rods!

 

Jason, thanks! I was looking at that same combo for my rebuild..

Jason, how much were the JE pistons for use with the 6.125 Rods? I know a place that has used Carrillos for $500 a set.

 

Derek, the pistons were $600 from Thunder Racing. Take a look at this link:
