Eagle rods are high quality and are affordable. They make an extremely good product relative to their prices. I have seen them live multiple seasons in $20,000+ circle track motors.

I've used eagle H beams in several of me race motors turning 75 to 8000 every weekend and never had a rod related failure. There a touch on the heavy side but I like them.

Eagle's are a middle of the road rod for say drag race use. If you desire the best get some Oliver's. :thumbs: :chevy
I don't know too much about Eagle rods, but do know that they're reasonably priced. :cheers:

I personally would prefer to spent the few extra $$ for the American made parts, but the Chinese have waged an economic war against us (think about it) and we're gonna lose it unless the average working american can finally come to their scences and realize thet the Republican and Democratic have soooo much to loose if we were to vote in paople who might actually close the borders for trade and jobs and keep our country self sufficient. The big boys have ALOT to lose out of their profit pockets if that were ever to happen.I'm pround to be an American, but dislike our leaders because they are only out for themselves. I'll get off my soap box now and hope I havn't ticked any of you off. BUY AMERICAN!!! :flag :flag :flag :flag :flag
