HLP's 1300HP Billet Titanium J35 Hybrid H/I Beam Connection Rods
DROP IN / PLUG N PLAY !!
YOUTUBE VIDEO - FULL SPECS AND WEIGHT COMPARISON VIDEO
Fitment = Plug N Play for ALL J35 Engine code's, Cranks and J-Series Pistons with stock wrist Pin diameter (OEM, HLP, Wiseco, etc....so basically all pistons)
All setups will benefit from these, NA, Nitrous and Forced Induction!!!!
~ HP GAINS ~
- Projected NA = 15-25++HP
- Projected Nitrous/Forced Induction = 25-50++HP
* Gains will vary from setup to setup and depending on which rods you're swapping away from, but conservatively you should see at least 15-25whp gains! We say this being our lightweight crank pulley sees 10-14whp gains and lightweight flywheels see 12-15whp gains. You have to think, those just spin on the crank while the crankshaft itself has to overcome the weight of the rod, lifting and lowering, compression pressure and induction pressure, so we guarantee the gains from these rods will only be compounded compared to any other lightweight part. If you're building a J35 engines these are a no brainer and EVERY OTHER MODS HP GAINS WILL BE COMPOUNDED!!!
~~ MATERIAL ~~
The strongest and most robust Grade 5 Titanium Available......
Ti-6AL-4V or also known as TC4 Aerospace Grade Titanium
WEIGHT COMPARISON
* Weights are with rod cap and bolts included*
* +- 1-2 grams, due to our scale variance
- HLP 1300HP J35 Titanium Rods = 404 grams per rod
- OEM Thin J35Z Rod = 506 grams per rod
- OEM J35A6 Rods = 554 grams per rod
- HLP Chromoly H-Beam Rods = 584 grams per rod
- Competitors Forged I-Beam Rods = 710 grams per rod
* That's 306 grams lighter PER ROD !!!
TOTAL WEIGHT SAVINGS PER SET
OEM Thin J35Z Rod = 612 grams lighter per set
* 20% Lighter than even the thin OEM J35Z rods! As if you were only running 4.8 rods in your engine
OEM J35A6 Rods = 900 grams lighter per set
* 27% Lighter - As if you were running only 4.38 rods in your engine
HLP 4340 Steel Forged H-Beam Rods = 1092 grams lighter per set
* A WHOPPING 31% Lighter than forged steel rods!!! As if you were only running 4 rods in your engine, or as if you removed 2 entire rods from your engine and off the crankshaft
- Competitor's Forged I-Beam Rods = 710 grams or 1836 grams lighter per set !!!!!!
* That's a WHOOPING 43% lighter !!
That's like running only 3.5 Rods in your engine or removing 2.5 rods from it !! We guarantee you'll see AT LEAST 20-25whp gains, especially if running NA and swapping away to our Titanium Rods !!!
ROD AND PISTON WEIGHT COMBO'STraum 4032 Pistons w/ pins = 530gram
Wiseco 2618 Pistons w/horned lightweight wrist pins = 410 grams
"Other's" I-Beam Rod w/cap and bolts = 710 grams
HLP Chromoly Steel H-Beam Rods = 595 grams
HLP Titanium J35 Rods = 410 grams
* If you run our Wiseco pistons and HLP Titanium Rod combo that will be a total weight savings of 2,520 grams per set
A WHOPPING 5.55 lbs OFF YOUR ROTATING ASSEMBLY !!! ABSOLUTELY INSANE
BENEFITS
LESS ROTATIONAL MASS ON THE CRANKSHAFT MEANS.....
- MORE HORSEPOWER (PROJECTED GAINS OF 15-20WHP NA, 30+WHP FORCED INDUCTION)
- LESS LOAD ON THE BEARINGS (LESS BEARING WEAR, MORE BEARING LIFE, ESPECIALLY HIGH LOAD AND RPM SETUPS)
- FREER REVVING AND MORE THROTTLE RESPONSE
- BETTER ACCELERATION
- BETTER MPG (IF THAT MATTERS TO YOU)
- HIGHER RPM POWER BAND/REV LIMITER (8K ++ RPM WITH THE PROPER SUPPORTING MODS). LESS LOAD = IS FREER REVVING
FEATURES
- PLUG N PLAY for ALL J35's. They will Fit the OEM crank, OEM block, OEM sizes Bearings...again Plug N Play, zero modifications needed!
- BY FAR the lightest weight J-Series connecting rod on the market.
- PLUG N PLAY, Compatible with all OEM or Aftermarket Pistons (with oem wrist pin diameter)
- Compatible with all J35 Cranks and Standard bearing sizes
- 1500hp L19 Hardware Included
- TC4 Billet Aerospace Grade Titanium
- Premium Manganese Bronze small end bushings (reduced heat and galling)
- HLP' Big Bore End Support Bridge (extra strength to the caps, does not effect fitment)
- Hybrid H-Beam/ I-Beam Design (thicker beam wall and grooves over our 4340 chromoly steel rods)
- Rated to 1300hp just as our budget friendly and proven 4340 H-Beams (1160whp max seen on them)
- GUARANTEED AND REPLACEMENT WARRANTY FOR 1 YEAR TO 1000HP
- 102grams Lighter than even the thin j35 OEM I-beam rods and 182+ grams lighter than any other forged J-Series rods on the market
- Reduced rotating mass on the bottom end = MORE POWER
- Less Bearing wear and load, espically at higher rpms
- Less weight on rotating assembly= MORE POWER, Freer revving, improved throttle response and HIGHER RPM window (8K++ RPM) !!!!
- Ideal for EVERYONE not just high power applications since they will be plug n play ready for any J35 engine or people using the J35 crank to stroke their J30 or J32.
DESCRIPTION
If you follow our IG stories you would have seen we've gone through multiple revisions of the rods, ultimately they have turned into a hybrid H-Beam / I-Beam rod. While Titanium (TC4 in this case) by far has the highest strength to weight ratio, when designing the rods we found utilizing the same specs as our current H-Beam Steel rods that they were going to be about 15% weaker and that wouldn't fly for us.
So in turn we adjusted and added meat to where it matters, the beam Wall and shrinking the width (adding material ) to the beam Groove, while ensuring not to affect any of the fitment measurements (bolt holes, big end and small end bores, length, etc etc). After these revisions the strength modeling reflects nearly identical ratings to our already proven HLP 4340 Steel H-Beam Rods ... 1300HP RATING!
The changes did add about 30 grams to the overall weight, but get this, they are still 102+ grams lighter than even the thin OEM I-beam rods and EASILY 180+++ grams lighter per rod than any other performance rod on the market!!

*FITS All J35 Engine CODES*
Can be straight swapped into J35 or.....
- J30 stroked to J33 with J35 Rods/Crank.
- J32 stroked to J35 with J35 Rods/Crank
- J37 De-Stroked to J36 with J35 Rods/Crank
- Material / Build Specs-
- Unlike Aluminum which has a VERY SHORT fatigue life (must replace every season or two depending on your HP), TC4 Titanium has a near Indefinite LifeSpan like steel but while being 31% lighter than steel
- Beefer H-Beam Design than even our Chromoly Rods, which have been Tested and Proven in everything from 550+whp Daily Drivers, to 750+whp AutoX and even 1000+whp Drag cars (1160whp test car, between 2 engines, 2+years of over 60 full 1/4 mile passes)
- TC4 Aerospace Grade Titanium (Ti-6AL-4V to be exact)
- Chamfered Big Bore and Small Bore Ends for smooth operation & Balance
(No other aftermarket Rods Include chamfered ends in their rods!)
- DOUBLE Shot Peened for additional strength, not single (What is Shot Peening??)
https://www.twi-global.com/technical-knowledge/faqs/what-is-shot-peening
- Big Bore End Foot/Support Bridge for additional strength around Crank Bearings/Big Bore end. Pushing our rods beyond the 1300hp rating.
- Rod Horsepower Rating -
*While others wont quote exact HP numbers, with our years of testing and R&D we KNOW they will last to our power figures if installed correctly, with proper bearing clearances, etc
