Chevy journal 2.000"/51mm
EMPI's I-Beam Rods use the O.E. design, but are forged from 4140 chromoly to give you a high strength rod that's easy on your budget.
3/8" 8740 200,000 psi tensile load rod bolts add all the strength and reliability necessary for this rod design. Torque these 3/8" bolts to 38 ft. lbs.
Radiused caps aid in stroker clearancing.
All rods are sold in matched weight.
Set of 4.
These particular rods will result in you having in the area of zero deck (+-), depending on your block's deck surface and your pistons.
A long rod will give a slower piston speed, and therefore a longer life for the rings and cylinder walls, but this also causes the cylinders to fill up slowly when the piston moves down during the inlet stroke. Of course, once the rpm builds this is overcome, hence the higher power band. A shorter rod will, of course, fill the cylinder much faster and therefore give more power at lower engine speeds, but be limited to a lower rev range.
