on my b20vtec setup? what can you tell about eagle rods, would you recommend them, or would you recommend something else? is the weight reallly matters?

 

if you will rev it lower than 9000 rpm then eagle is ok, otherwise i would rather suggest you Crower ultralight rods.

 

Carrillo

 

probe ultralight rods

 

[QUOTE=alterdcreations]probe ultralight rods
If you need a new set of GSR, "R" probe ultalites I have them for $200.00

 

eagle has alot of quality of metal issues, seeing as how its a china rod. I'd say spend the money, get a set of Carillos.

 

hm... i checked the weights
eagles are approx 510 grams
probes are 489 gr
manleys are 487 gr
and corrillos are the lightes with 421 gr but the are pro-a not h-shaped

guys may be i have to save some money are get myself titanium rods? ))))

What application?

 

Why are you looking for an H-shaped rod?

 

I'm not looking for h-shaped rods, but all the others except for corillos are h-shaped. can you explain me why i don't need h-shaped rods?

applications is going to look something like this: b20 block, b18 gsr head, b20 crank, wiseco 12:1 pistons, 50mm ITBs, toda header, haven't thought about head yet.

apr bolts - yes but eagle rods - i'm not sure

 

if its a n/a build then get the lightest rods posible

 

We use the Carrillo Pro-A and SA for All motor applications. They are the lightest and obviously Carrillo has a great reputation as a rod company.

 

can you give me the exact catalogue number of carillo rods you use for your b20vtec setups with stock b20 crank? cause I'm a little bit confused.

 

b20 crank and rods = ls crank and rods
