Carrillo SC7461-6 Performance Forged Connecting Rod

The Carrillo SC7461-6 is a precision-engineered, high-performance forged connecting rod designed for demanding racing and performance engine applications. Built by CP-Carrillo — an industry leader in connecting rod manufacturing since 1963 — this rod delivers the strength, reliability, and dimensional precision that serious engine builders demand.

Key Features:

• Manufactured from CP-Carrillo's proprietary Carrilloy alloy — a chrome, nickel, moly, vanadium steel that meets all VAR (Vacuum Arc Re-melt) ASTM standards for superior strength and fatigue resistance
• Forged from oversized billets to ensure proper grain flow and eliminate surface inclusions generated during the forging process
• Each rod is magnafluxed at least twice during production to identify any surface or subsurface flaws before the part leaves the facility
• Individual Rockwell hardness testing on every connecting rod validates the heat treatment process for consistent material properties
• A final controlled shot peen operation relieves tensile stresses and introduces beneficial compressive stresses to maximize fatigue life
• All critical CNC machining operations use in-process probing to verify dimensional integrity throughout manufacturing
• Each rod is laser-etched with a job number for full traceability from raw material to finished part
• 100% made in the USA at CP-Carrillo's state-of-the-art facility in Irvine, California

CP-Carrillo connecting rods are trusted by professional racers and performance engine builders across every motorsports discipline. The SC7461-6 delivers the same race-proven quality and meticulous quality control found across the entire CP-Carrillo rod lineup, making it a premium choice for high-horsepower performance builds.
