[QUOTE="KCTurbos, post: 1114368, member: 13852"] I am pretty sure they are forged rods. I am looking into rods right now and there are a couple of companies making rods... but they are all pretty expensive. Hypermax is the cheapest and according to the website, they are forged. Here is the info straight from hypermax "Hypermax Ultimax Super Strength [COLOR="Red"]Forged High Alloy Connecting Rods[/COLOR] A set of 8 forged connecting rods with the center to center controlled within .002. [COLOR="Red"]Stronger than billet connecting rods[/COLOR] and the powdered metal production rods currently being used. Lighter than stock rods up to 40 grams (When compared to factory powdered metal rods). Refined grain 4340 aircraft quality forgings which are vacuum heat treated for optimum tensile and yield strength. Cryogenically treated to improve grain structure and shot peened for improved fatique life then magnafluxed for integrity. ARP bolts. Supports 2000 BHP on diesel fuel only." Here are a couple other companies that make rods (but they are even more expensive) Cunningham - forged Crowers - Billet R&R (RCD) - billet [/QUOTE]
