Is 246 Wheel Horsepower, all-motor, revving to 10k 100's of times proven?

Jeff

 

The rods are made of 4340 certified steel. This kind of steel is not that difficult to make properly and is plenty strong. I have seen plenty of fucked up Crowers.

 

i know about the crowers but have you seen any fucked up eagles...non that ive heard of(maybe you have?)
im just saying.... its kinda too early to say they can handle the duties of BOOST.
i forget but what are eagles made with again?

Eagles are also chinese certified 4340 steel.

 

is jojo really using eagle products ? i know people put sponsers stickers on thier cars but it doesnt always mean that is wat they are using . im jus curious becuase im searchin for rods and i dont feel like dishin out $700 for crowers if i dont have to . will the eagles hold up to 500hp ?

 

I dunno if this fact would comply to rod manufacturing, however I am sure most of you know the US steel industry cannot compete with foreign steel manufactuers. And one of the major reasons is the quality of the steel, which foreign manufactuers produce steel with greater effciency and quality. I assume crower would purchase steel from a US source versus Eagle and probe produced overseas. I dunno much about quality of steel or control of quality, but maybe this information could shed some light on the subject.

 

We needed a set of rods to do an overnight repair and Jojo pulled out a new set of Eagles and said "Here, you can have these" I can't see inside his motors but he sure has them in his posession.

BTW Rocket, I could not find the Chinese certification mark on them

 

They do on my friends car. He makes around 530hp.

 

The certification marks become invisible upon x-ray inspection. I'll go to freakin Taiwan and see if the steel mill is certified. Like I said before it's not that hard to make this steel. Now if it were say Aermet 100 or MP35N or H11 Tool Steel I would be like it better come from a US mill like Timken or some fancy mill in France or the UK.

Many top racers use Cunningham from a reliable souce who had the rod drop on his head and the rod bolt hand cunningham on it.

 

I'm chinese certified....or at least half.
Sorry, had to say that.

Hmmm, might be something for me to try in the future with these probe rods.

 

You only get half a discount then.

 

I'll just call my cousins up then.

 

we put 730whp on eagles...

 

Is this 730hp car owned by a well known H-T member?

 

how much for eagle rods and where can you buy them at ? i need them for a b18c5 if that matters . thanks .

 

Yes.

 

I have a feeling he'll make more in the near future. Or at least more useable power.

 

There are many many sellers that will sell you eagles. Just look at the top post of this forum or post in Best Buys that you are looking for some Eagle rods. I am sure you'll have like 10 sellers contacting you.

 

for now i would go with eagles......until i see some more proof (long term too) the probe rods would be considered a risk to me and i cannot afford any risks

 

thanks rocket
