Manley 14242R6-8 Turbo Tuff I-Beam Connecting Rods SBC 5.850"

The Manley 14242R6-8 Turbo Tuff I-Beam connecting rods are precision-engineered for Small Block Chevy (SBC) applications demanding serious strength and reliability. With a 5.850-inch center-to-center length, these rods are purpose-built for high-performance street, strip, and forced-induction builds where factory rods simply cannot survive.

Manley's Turbo Tuff I-Beam design uses a proprietary beam profile that maximizes strength while minimizing reciprocating weight. Each rod is CNC-machined from premium 4340 aircraft-quality chromoly steel forgings, then shot-peened and Magnafluxed for quality assurance. The cap is retained by 3/8" ARP2000 rod bolts, offering superior clamping force and fatigue resistance compared to standard ARP bolts.

Key Features:

• 5.850" center-to-center length for Small Block Chevy applications

• 3/8" ARP2000 high-strength rod bolts included
