Manley Turbo Tuff Tri-Beam Rod - Engine Builder Magazine

Manley Turbo Tuff Tri-Beam Rod

Given that “Supercars” are often subject to power upgrades, Manley Performance has developed a robust new addition to its Turbo Tuff® Tri-Beam connecting rod lineup that’s engineered for 2,000+ horsepower applications in the 5.2L V-10 engine found in Lamborghini Gallardo, Huracan and Audi R8 & S6 cars.

Forged from 300M steel, the rod features a distinctive ribbed design on the cap, beam and pin end to enhance structural integrity. Large radius cap corners with a shallow bolt spot face improves crank-end fatigue strength. Wrist pin oiling holes are placed at 10:00 and 2:00 to improve pin lubrication.

Manufactured entirely in the U.S., from forging to final machining, they are shot-peened to MIL spec and 100% individually magnafluxed. Both ARP2000 (220,000 psi) and premium ARP Custom Age 625+ (260,000 psi tensile strength nominal rating) rod bolts are available.

Manley’s Turbo Tuff® Tri-Beam rods are ideally suited to high-boost turbocharged and nitrous oxide assisted applications. For additional information call Manley’s tech team at 732-905-3366 or visit the company’s website at www.ManleyPerformance.com.
