As such, Skunk2 relies on extensive material testing and works closely with its foundry to produce high-quality rods at an affordable price. Comprehensive heat-treating, tempering, and shot-peening processes together ensure that each Alpha Series Rod remains consistent and strong. Finally, each rod is magna-fluxed to ensure integrity and that each process has been completed thoroughly and according to Skunk2's rigid specifications.\nAlpha Series Connecting Rod Set; 138.63mm Length; 457 Grams; Rated to 900HP; H-Beam; Long Rod; Incl. 3\/8 ARP2000 Bolts\/Lube; 4340 Chromoly Steel; Set of 4;\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-Pin Oil Passages For Increased Lubrication And Strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePin End Compatible w\/Most Pistons w\/o Machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShot-Peened For Reduced Fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-in.

Crafted from premium 4340 chromoly steel, these rods deliver an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring durability under demanding conditions. The straight H-beam design provides optimized stress distribution, contributing to overall reliability and performance. Each rod undergoes comprehensive heat-treating, tempering, and shot-peening processes, which enhance fatigue resistance and maintain structural integrity during high RPM and power outputs. The rods are magna-fluxed for defect detection, guaranteeing consistent quality and adherence to Skunk2’s rigorous standards. Featuring dual-pin oil passages, these rods promote superior lubrication, reducing wear and extending engine life. The pin end is compatible with most pistons without the need for machining, simplifying installation. Equipped with bronze wrist pin bushings and secured with 3\/8-inch ARP2000 bolts, these long rods are designed for engines capable of exceeding 900 horsepower. Each set is balanced to within one gram, ensuring smooth operation at high RPMs. These rods are suitable for a variety of Honda Civic and Civic del Sol models from 1989 to 1997, making them a versatile choice for enthusiasts seeking to maximize their engine’s output while maintaining reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eConstructed from high-grade 4340 chromoly steel for maximum strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eStraight H-beam design optimizes stress distribution for high-performance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDual-pin oil passages enhance lubrication and reduce wear during operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eShot-peened finish decreases fatigue and prolongs component life\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatible with most pistons without machining, simplifying installation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncludes bronze wrist pin bushings for smooth movement and longevity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSecured with 3\/8 ARP2000 bolts for high-strength fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMagna-fluxed inspection ensures no defects or weaknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eEngineered to support engines producing over 900 HP\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBalanced within one gram for smooth high-RPM operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFitment:\u003cbr\u003e\n1988 Honda Civic RT 4WD\u003cbr\u003e\n1988 Honda CRX Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1989 Honda Civic RT 4WD\u003cbr\u003e\n1989 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1989 Honda CRX Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1990 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1990 Honda Civic RT 4WD\u003cbr\u003e\n1990 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1990 Honda CRX Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1991 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1991 Honda Civic RT 4WD\u003cbr\u003e\n1991 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1991 Honda CRX Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1992 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1992 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1993 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1993 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1993 Honda Civic del Sol Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1994 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1994 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1994 Honda Civic del Sol Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1995 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1995 Honda Civic Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1995 Honda Civic del Sol Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1996 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1996 Honda Civic del Sol Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1997 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1997 Honda Civic del Sol Si\u003cbr\u003e\n1998 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n1999 Honda Civic EX\u003cbr\u003e\n2000 Honda Civic EX\u003cstyle\u003etable.productattributes, .productattributes td { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; border-collapse: collapse; padding: 2px; text-align: left; }\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"productattributes\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbdoy\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAir Freight Prohibited: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNot Carb Approved: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eLtl Freight Required: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eProp 65: Y\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003ePart Type: automotive\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eEpa: N\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCarb Acknowledgement Required: false\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eRegular Stock: t\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eUnits Per Sku: 1\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbdoy\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Skunk2 Racing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53602129379601,"sku":"306-05-1190","price":471.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3830\/0689\/files\/2b376e97c79d36e55639ca880374abb2.jpg?v=1779928866","url":"https:\/\/shoprenegade.com\/products\/skunk2-alpha-series-honda-d16-z6-connecting-rods-long-rod-design-high-performance-138-63mm-length","provider":"Renegade Speed by Renegade Racing \u0026 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
