Engine Parts - Connecting Rods

Voodoo Connection Rods are H-beam rods created from 4340 forgings. Voodoo Rods are strength and quality tested through stress relieving, shot peening, and magnafluxing. To remove stresses from the metals, stress relieving is used. By heating the metals to a certain temperature and then allows them to cool in still air; this helps with the removal of remaining stresses from the metal. Shot peening is a process by which small metallic particles are used to impact the surface of the material being used in a part's construction and creates compressive residual stresses on that surface, which can then longer withstand cracking and breaking, thereby increasing the lifespan of the part. Furthermore, magnafluxing is running a magnetic particle filled fluid over and through metal parts. The magnetic particles attach to any flaws or fissures in the material and magnifies them so that it can be identified and removed from use if necessary.

• Constructed from 4340 forged steel for strength

• Stress relieved to remove internal stresses from the steel

• Shot peened to increase longevity of metal

• Magnafluxed to identify any flawed materials

• All voodoo Rods are weight mated to +/- 1 gram and utilize ARP 200 rod bolts
