What bolts do these conrods use and how should I tighten them?
These rods use ARP conrod bolts, usually ARP2000 as standard with L19 or CA625+ available on some models. ARP2000 bolts are generally torqued to around 55 ft-lb for 3/8 inch and around 75 ft-lb for 7/16 inch when using ARP Ultra-Torque lube. L19 bolts must be tightened by stretch, not torque. Always refer to the latest ARP instructions for exact specifications.
Do these conrods have a horsepower rating or warranty?
No. Like other performance rods, they do not carry a horsepower or performance warranty. Spool warrants workmanship before installation, but once fitted, power handling depends entirely on machining, clearances, tuning, fuel, boost level and rpm.
Do the big end and small end need machining?
They often do. Crank journals and pin bores vary between engines, so your builder should measure the big end oil clearance and small end pin clearance and hone as required before assembly.
What are the recommended machining requirements for the Spool Ford XR6 Barra Turbo H Beam Conrods?
The Spool Barra H Beam Conrods may require big-end or small-end honing to ensure proper fitment due to variations in factory journal and pin sizes. Always check clearances with your specific engine setup.
What is the weight tolerance for the Spool Barra H Beam Conrods?
The Spool Barra H Beam Conrods are weight matched within a tolerance of plus or minus 1 gram. This ensures consistency across the set, which is crucial for balanced performance.
Can I upgrade the bolts on the Spool Barra H Beam Conrods?
Yes, you can opt for the ARP L19 bolt upgrade for the Spool Barra H Beam Conrods. This upgrade provides enhanced strength for high-performance applications, but be sure to follow the specific torque or stretch specifications for L19 bolts.
What materials are used in the construction of the Spool Barra H Beam Conrods?
The Spool Barra H Beam Conrods are made from high tensile 4340 forged steel, which provides excellent strength and durability. They undergo processes such as quenching, heat treatment, and shot peening to enhance their performance characteristics.
Are bearings included with the Spool Barra H Beam Conrods?
No, the Spool Barra H Beam Conrods do not come with bearings included. It is essential to source the appropriate bearings separately to match your engine specifications.
