inlinePro for me

 

I recently visited the Cunningham Rods factory. They do S2000 rods.

Honestly, I'm not sure how to differentiate between rod manufacturers other than what some guy said.

 

Pauter has been a proven reliable con rod.

 

There are several options out there worth considering, and a few I won't get into.

We have used Arrow, Pauter, Carrillo, and Cunningham on previous builds.

The Pauter rods are a great value, readily available and proven. Laskey swears by them, so you know they are a quality piece. We run these on the spec road race motors. They are ~$200/rod, a bit more in Titanium.

Carrillo have always made an excellent rod. As a company, they are now owned by CP/Pankl Group. They still operate out of and independent facility. They are pricier at ~$300/rod.

Cunningham also makes a high quality rod. Typically they are 8-12 weeks out if not in stock. They don't care who you are or what you use them for; there is no expedite. And they rarely have stock for the S2000. Not sure what they cost at this time. They have never had them when we needed them by yesterday.

Arrow Precision from the UK makes rods in 6AL-4V Titanium. The best in the business.

Things to consider are the beam design and weight amongst other nuances...

There are the H-beam, I-beam, A-beam (Carrillo) and the X-beam (Pauter-looks like a +) to consider.

Every manufacturer will claim their rod is superior for strength.

The CP/Pauter combination is a very respectable standard for a boosted F20c/F22c.

I had Ross/Pauter combination in my last engine.
That was very good.

 

Something to be said about proven and available.

 

Pauter titanium rods.......

I just want to know how much they cost.

 

A lot X4

 

I don't believe inline is making their own rods, they are outsourcing them from somewhere.

 

$15 hundo per. $6K a set. The Arrow precision are more...
