Noted internal engine components manufacturer Manley Performance has expanded its line of connecting rods for Sport Compact applications to include H-beam models for Honda, Mitsubishi, Nissan and Subaru applications. The race-style H-beam rod is engineered to provide exceptional reliability in extremely high horsepower engines.

The rods are forged from E4340AQ aircraft quality alloy and precision machined in Manley’s Lakewood, New Jersey facility to stringent tolerances. They are heat-treated for an optimum balance of strength and ductility, and are equipped with 3/8" diameter ARP® 2000 cap screws (220,000 psi) and Ampco 45 wrist pin bushings. Special features include reinforced double-rib rod caps and the removal of all unengaged threads. Each rod is 100% magnafluxed after machining and Mil-spec shot-peened to enhance fatigue strength.

Manley H-beam connecting rods are available for 1.6 and 1.8 liter Honda/Acura V-Tec and non V-Tec engines, 2.2 liter Honda Prelude, Mitsubishi Eclipse GS and GST 2.0, Nissan 2.0 liter engines (1991-2002), and Subaru EJ 18/20/22.
