Product description

I-beam connecting rods take their name from their shape, which is visually similar to the original.

These connecting rods are made from 4140 chrome-molybdenum and are designed so that a minimum of material has to be removed from the crankcase to fit a crankshaft with a stroke of 74 mm or more.

I-rods are only suitable for crankshafts with a VW bearing journal (55 mm). They have a standard length of 137 mm, like those used in 1300, 1500 and 1600 cm3 engines.

The connecting rods are fitted with 8740 3/8" chrome-molybdenum bolts, which must be tightened to a torque of 52.8 Nm.

Note: Don't want to take any risks? If so, we recommend replacing the supplied bolts with the high-quality ARP 2000 bolts listed in the "Options" tab.
