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; 152.00mm Length; 489 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.
