Upon further investigation, you will find such parts not to be a branded name product. You will notice many sellers fail to mention the actual brand of these products. These non-branded (no-name) rods and cranks are often poor quality in many ways. We have noticed some sellers using generic rods and crankshafts in their rotating assemblies. These rods offer excellent block clearance in the lower end of the cylinders.

The Scat rods do have genuine ARP 8740 Series 12 point cap screws. The fact that these rods are incredibly strong and well made, coupled with the fact they are light weight and offer better clearance than any H-Beam rod on the market, made it an easy decision to use them in all of our high horsepower street/strip engines. The style is reminiscent of a steel billet rod. Notice the general appearance in the pictures. These rods are run in engines that not only produce high horsepower levels, but also run at continuous RPM. If you do a search on the Scat Pro-Comp rods, you will find a vast amount of info on many car forums. We also use this rod in our big block 540/555 engines, making approx. We are now using this rod in all of our Stage 4 and up SBC engines. They are far superior to conventional style I-beam rods. These rods are excellent for those wanting the extra security offered by a rod with 7/16 ARP cap screws. The critical sizing and installation of the ARP cap screws is performed on a Sunnen machine in the USA by Scat Industries. These rods are made exclusively by Scat, and have nothing to do with the ProComp company. The Scat Pro-Comp extreme duty I-beam rods should not be mistaken for ProComp rods. Our choice of rods are the SCAT COMPETITION SERIES rods with ARP-8740 cap screws.

Also be sure to check your main and rod journal size. This is recommended on any crankshaft, regardless of brand or cost. We recommend that you check the thrust clearance on the crank before assembling the engine.

The 2618 forged piston is able to withstand the damaging effects from detonation to a higher degree than the lower cost 4032 forged pistons, especially non-forged hypereutectic pistons such as Speed Pro or Keith Black, and many others. Why go with 2618 forged pistons? If you encounter certain tuning issues, detonation is highly probable, and it's effects can cause severe damage to your engine. You will usually see the higher end pistons on the market using 2618 aircraft alloy. We find this alloy to be much more suitable for high performance engines than the common 4032 forged alloy. Our custom made Wiseco forged pistons are made from 2618 aircraft alloy. These pistons are perfectly designed for use on the street, as well as for medium to upper level drag racing. This is a generic term, referring to their ability to be used in high performance applications as well as for street rod use. This does not mean that the pistons are for racing only. You may have noticed that our Wiseco custom made forged pistons are referred to as Racing Pistons on the package. Forged 4340 crank available as an upgrade.
