"Long" Billet Rod for Predator 212cc (Hemi and Non-Hemi)

The new ARC Racing billet “Long” rod for the Harbor Freight PREDATOR 212cc (Hemi and Non-Hemi).
Product Specs:
This rod measures 3.707″ center to center for a 1.188″ crank pin with .490″ wrist pin
Designed to be used with aftermarket high-performance pistons.
For stock stroke and high lift cam applications.
The longer rod ratio generated with this combination will produce horsepower in the mid to high rpm range due to increased dwell and decreased side loading of piston.
Bearings and custom designed high tensile strength bolts are included.
Piston will require machining in this application. Approximately .075″ will need to be remove from the piston dome depending on the block.
Rods are CNC machined from aircraft grade 7075 T-651 aluminum.
Designed to utilize the higher compression ratios and high RPMs of racing OHV engines.
Rod bolt torque: 170 in/lbs lubricated
Key Features Include:
Oil groove in the crank bore that is fed through a channel in the integrated dipper arm.
Oil groove in the wrist pin bore that provides a reservoir of lubricant to the wrist pin.
Installation Instructions:
To install your ARC rod you will need a 12 point 1/4″ socket and a QUALITY inch pound torque wrench. You will need an outside micrometer, dial bore gauge or plasti gauge, and oil.
Measure the crank pin diameter with the outside mic, it should measure 1.188″ +/-.0005″. Measure in several spots to insure roundness. If out of round more than .0005″ it probably should be replaced. The crank pin finish should be smooth to the touch.
