R&R Rro Billet 4340 Chromoly Steel
Connecting Rods

LN Engineering LLC is the exclusive worldwide distributor for the
R&R Pro Billet E4340AQ Billet Steel H-Beam & I-Beam Connecting Rods for Porsche


 

Porsche 911 models

For more than a decade, R&R Racing Products has been manufacturing the highest quality precision engineered billet race components, from their Pro-series connecting rods to our dry sump oil pumps and injector assemblies. While other manufacturers attempt to dominate the market by mass producing their rods and selling them at cutthroat prices, R&R has taken a different approach. R&R Racing Products is dedicated to continuously improving its connecting rods and other products by actively seeking out new technologies, processes, and stronger materials, thereby standing up to their promise of exceeding and outperforming the competition time and time again. Independent and thorough bench and field testing of both our alloys and finished product performed by R&R places the utmost importance in ensuring the best set of connecting rods money can buy. The same can be said of R&R’s newest line of Pro billet steel connecting rods, available for imports and domestics and exclusively for Porsche from LN Engineering LLC.

Porsche Boxster, Cayman, 911 models

The factory Porsche Boxster, Cayman, 911 models use connecting rods that are called "cracked-cap" rods, where the cap is mechanically broken off the connecting rod, the partition line or crack used to locate the cap on the rod as a cost savings measure. Conventional rods use locator bushings and precision ground mating surfaces. Where conventional rods can be reconditioned, "cracked-cap" rods cannot be rebuilt, only replaced. Due to the excessive cost of original equipment connecting rods and their being prone to rod bolt failures (it's not possible to replace the rod bolts without resizing the rods unfortunately), the best next solution is our new billet R&R Pro connecting rods.

We also offer press in and hone AMPCO 45 bushings for the stock rods, shown below:

For street engines, our premium pin end bushings coupled with upcoming ARP rod bolts will be an excellent upgrade to the stock connecting rod. Those planning track use should upgrade to our R&R Pro connecting rods.

R&R starts with the highest grades of E4340AQ Chromoly, exceeding the specifications of 300M steel which is then machined in our state of the art CNC facility. Each and every connecting rod has been engineered for the ultimate balance of strength and weight, heat treated, cryogenically treated, triple tempered, shot-peened, quality tested, and then finally assembled with the finest ARP 2000, L19, and Custom Age 625 fasteners, precision honed, and balanced to industry specification, right out of the box.

The above finite element analysis shows our "winged" design, which reinforces the weakest area of the rod in this case, at the rod bolt head shoulder.
