I bought a set of rods from egal, and I have yet to take them apart, but just looking at them, there isnt a break where it goes on to the crank. how in the hell does the bottom end come off?
you can see in this picture that there is no way to pull it apat? do Ihave to break out my dremel and custom make it.....

interesting, how that would be the first thing I would have done had I got the parts and questioned it.
Go Premium, it builds character!
It's like the small end, it uses a big-ass pin to hold it to the crank
Damn, that's a tight tolerance, very impressive.

Lol common to the ppl who posted real replies, this is the same guy who said that turbotech was a couple of suckas for sending him a bunch of Cometic gaskets stuck together!
Got sarcasm? lol

My rods weren't nearly that clean...I HAVE seen rods that weren't cut, but it was on purpose for demonstrations...

LOL the quality of the Eagle rods are really well done. The rod does almost look like 1 piece.

who are you kidding, there is no cut there. break out the angle grinder
Blew it up, build numbers coming soon
Only real engine builders know that you're supposed to slip it over the crank with a super-secret, machinists only, slipper-jabber tool!
I've said too much...

You can see it between the bearing notchs and on the side of the rod.

The sad part is that eagle rods for the ecotec have been discounted from eagle.
I called them the other day to get my order in and they only had 17 sets, and will make no more
So if anyone else is going to order them they better do it now.

Probably because of the 2.0 and 2.4 variants of the Ecotec

looks the same as my arctic sled, it goes onto a pressed crank... no bolts needed. Same rods I have, you will like them, just make sure you set everything in good bearind, studs, and oil, :cheers

if you retardes knew anything eagle cracks there rod caps not machines them. it gives them more strength. make shur you put them back together the same way they came apart or you just @!#$ your new rods.
