Compstar engineering leads the way in High Value connecting rod design. The original Compstar H-beam rods were conceived around the idea that high quality and affordability can come in the same package. The time saved in preparation for use becomes an added value that you’ll discover during your engine build. Dimensional repeatability and the proper clearances for high performance use right out of the box also add value, as well as peace of mind. Attention to detail has long been the trademark of Compstar rods.
