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; 143.15mm Length; 509 Grams; Rated to 900HP; H-Beam; 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 feature a straight H-beam design that provides an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Each rod is meticulously heat-treated, shot-peened, and magna-fluxed to ensure superior durability, fatigue resistance, and structural integrity. Designed to withstand over 900 horsepower, they are ideal for turbocharged or high-revving engines seeking reliability and performance. The dual-pin oil passages promote enhanced lubrication, reducing wear and ensuring longevity under demanding conditions. The pin end is compatible with most pistons without requiring machining, simplifying installation. Included with each set are bronze wrist pin bushings and 3\/8-inch ARP2000 bolts, which are pre-lubricated for ease of assembly and optimal clamping force. These connecting rods are balanced to within one gram to promote smooth engine operation and reduce vibrations. FEA analysis confirms their structural efficiency, making them a trusted choice for serious enthusiasts and professional builders alike. Whether restoring a stock engine or building a high-horsepower race engine, these rods provide the strength, reliability, and precision necessary for optimal performance and longevity. Designed specifically to fit Honda Prelude models from 1993 to 2001, the Skunk2 Alpha Series H22A rods ensure a perfect fit and seamless integration into your engine build. Each set is a comprehensive upgrade designed to meet the rigorous demands of motorsport and high-performance street driving, offering peace of mind with proven materials and manufacturing processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eForged from high-quality 4340 chromoly steel for maximum strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eStraight H-beam design offers an optimal strength-to-weight ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDual-pin oil passages for improved lubrication and reduced wear\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompatible with most pistons without machining on the pin end\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eShot-peened surface treatment to minimize fatigue and enhance longevity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncludes bronze wrist pin bushings and 3\/8-inch ARP2000 bolts for secure assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMagna-flux inspected for structural integrity and defect-free quality\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBalanced within +\/- 1 gram for smooth engine operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eRated to handle over 900 horsepower, suitable for high-performance engines\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHeat-treated and FEA analyzed for strength and reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically for Honda Prelude models from 1993 to 2001\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFitment:\u003cbr\u003e\n1993 Honda Prelude VTEC\u003cbr\u003e\n1994 Honda Prelude VTEC\u003cbr\u003e\n1995 Honda Prelude VTEC\u003cbr\u003e\n1996 Honda Prelude VTEC\u003cbr\u003e\n1997 Honda Prelude Base\u003cbr\u003e\n1997 Honda Prelude Type SH\u003cbr\u003e\n1998 Honda Prelude Base\u003cbr\u003e\n1998 Honda Prelude Type SH\u003cbr\u003e\n1999 Honda Prelude Base\u003cbr\u003e\n1999 Honda Prelude Type SH\u003cbr\u003e\n2000 Honda Prelude Base\u003cbr\u003e\n2000 Honda Prelude Type SH\u003cbr\u003e\n2001 Honda Prelude Base\u003cbr\u003e\n2001 Honda Prelude Type SH\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":53602132558097,"sku":"306-05-1170","price":471.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3830\/0689\/files\/956edbba91378f780c0cac36513bebb8.jpg?v=1779928921","url":"https:\/\/shoprenegade.com\/products\/skunk2-alpha-series-honda-h22a-connecting-rods-forged-4340-chromoly-steel-with-h-beam-design-rated-for-900hp","provider":"Renegade Speed by Renegade Racing \u0026 Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
