i have searched but could not find what im looking for. i was looking at getting a new set of rods for my 2.0l b18 build. i was looking at either eagle or manley rods. i was just wondering what peoples experiences of each are, recommendations welcome.

thanks

 

from my understanding manley rods are quite a bit beefier than Eagles are. can anyone clearify?

 

ya get manleys if you dont care about price.

 

manley's here, and they kick ***, they were beefier than my buddies eagles

 

the machining is better too

 

what are they like in terms of fitment. any machining needed. did anyone use the arp rod bolts with the manleys

 

Manley Turbo Tuffs if your are planning on making some power!

 

Yea, i used arp rod bolts, had to notch my main girdle and notch the block for fitment. Cake though, and well worth it.

 

doesnt manley have a new set of "econo" rods? maybe the OP is talking about those.

 

ahh good point
