Product Details

The Manley 14242RA-8 Tour Series I-Beam connecting rods are purpose-built for high-performance Small Block Chevy applications demanding a winning combination of light weight and race-proven durability. With a 5.850-inch center-to-center length, these rods are a popular choice for stroker and oval track builds where reduced reciprocating mass is critical.

Key Features:

  • I-Beam construction — profiled beam and cap area removes stress risers while delivering the lightest and strongest rod possible
  • Forged 4340 aircraft-quality vacuum degassed steel — provides exceptional tensile strength and fatigue resistance under sustained high-RPM loads
  • Shot peened after machining to MIL spec — enhances surface fatigue strength for long-term reliability
  • 100% individually magnafluxed — every rod is inspected to ensure zero defects before leaving the factory
  • ARP 2000 cap screws — industry-standard fasteners for reliable clamping force at race-level power outputs
  • .927" bushed full-floating wrist pin bore — accepts a full-floating piston pin for reduced piston side-loading and improved longevity
  • 2.100" crankshaft rod journal — sized for standard Small Block Chevy large-journal cranks

Manley's Tour Series rods are a benchmark choice for oval track racers, restricted engine classes, and performance street/strip builds. Engineered and manufactured at Manley's facility in Lakewood, New Jersey, these rods reflect decades of OEM and motorsport experience in high-performance engine internals.

First time to order with Autoplicity (order #32934). The transaction is very smooth so far. The online ordering process is very clear and easy to follow. Fast shipping within two days after placing the order. Following-up email promptly notified the shipment.

Very competitive price, responsive customer service, very satisfied.

Best price I could find. It was delivered just when I needed it. Thank you !

Wow that was fast. I ordered a Pertronix Ignitor conversion kit. Not only were they by far the lowest price I could find, they shipped within hours of submitting the order. I got the shipment in less than 24 hrs, even though I ordered ground shipping. I was a little bummed that they did not offer free shipping, as I am used to with other online places, but with their fast turnaround, I am not begrudging it. Sure it might have been because they have a warehouse nearby, but it was still unexpectedly impressive. The part arrived and looks like it all there and should be good to go. <br><br>I can't vouch for their customer service, but so far I am pleasantly surprised.

best prices on the net

Fast -regular- shipping even on large items. I was skeptical at first but I am happy and don't regret my purchase!!!
