They are Eagle rods. I am going to have them resized and use them in my 2.4L. I have heard some bad things about the Eagles not being perfectly round. With the HP I plan on making I am almost tempted to sell the Eagles and get some Crowers.
Then if I am going to buy rods, then I could go with the longer rods and get the better rod ratio out of them, but then the wrist pin is in the bottom ring of the piston. I am still up in the air a little bit, but I am pretty sure I will just use the Eagles and new Wiseco's.

didn't know weisco made rods

For the dsm's there are three equally good options, light, heavy, and heavier (eagle, crower, and pauter). I think the eagle incorperate I beam, while the other two use H (or is it the other way around), I originally chose the eagles because they are lighter than the other two options and cheaper AND rotating mass is a bad thing. And to the best of my knowledge no-one has broken any of them due to shear power, maybe its best to stick with what you have.
What brand rod does marco use for his motors?
thanx for the shout out jet btw

Pauter.
Marco lightens them on the stage 4 motors. That's what he's doing with mine, including the pistons and crank.
