Which rods would you use for a high output engine for up to 7200rpm?

 

We use Carrillo rods in our 368fwhp 3.4L 911 race car as well as our 500+rwhp 3L turbo 944 race car.

 

Where can I get them? Carrillo is out of stock till mid March.

 

An engine shop may have some in stock for a specific application. They probably stock so many for their more common applications, otherwise they might build to order or custom build to spec.

 

How about the Ruf titanium rods that CJV is using on his car?

 

Titanium rods are kind of tricky. Had a talk with Porsche racing department they change theirs after a few hours of racing. They are a must if you increase revs because of their mass. Also spoke to other tuners and agreed that there is a longevity issue with Titanium in relation with crank. That what they say. We are keeping revs to a max 7150.
