by on Aug.17, 2015, under Car Accessories

There is a wide number of connecting rods on the market today. The most considerable difference is rod’s size and material it is made from. The most common materials are steel, aluminum, and titanium.

Steel rods

The most prevalent type of connecting rods is steel rods. Because of the strength and great durability this type of rods can be used in daily driving and in endurance racing. But there is one disadvantage of steel rods – they are extremely heavy that’s why these rods increase rotating assembly’s stress and consume more power. Performance connecting rods can be made from different grades of steel. The hardness, yield strength and tensile strength of steel rods depend on its heat treatment and forging temperature. That’s why it is recommended that you purchase rods from well-known and reliable manufacturers. CP Bullet Pistons and Rods are made by famous manufacturer and are widely used by ordinary drivers and pro racers as well.

Steel Connecting Rods

Aluminum rods

Aluminum rods have very similar characteristics to the steel rods but are lighter up to 40%. This rod’s type is used in drag racing and in high horsepower engines. Small weight of aluminum rods allows engine to gain rev faster and to reduce stress on the crankshaft and vibration. That’s why this type of rods has a great lifespan.

Aluminum Connecting Rods

Titanium rods

Titanium rods are lighter than steel ones and stronger at the same time. But these rods are much more expensive than previous types. That’s why titanium rods are most commonly used in expensive engines for endurance and drag racing.

Youth is the major buyer for the sports car and hence every sports car is designed for the youth. Chevy on the other hand has the customers who have reached their 50s.  The auto giant has understood this fact well and hence has started working towards going young. The customer base of the famous Chevrolet Corvette needs to be younger and the company has started coming up with various campaigns to attract its customers. Their new introduction Chevy Corvette Stingray is also a step towards getting younger.
The newly introduced campaigns by GM are mainly targeted towards bonding with their customers. The company has tried its best to make their customer’s Chevrolet Corvette buying experience memorable. They have opened up the Corvette building process to its customers. The Chevy customers can now walk through the plant and also have a look on how their future car is being made. This will turn out to be an emotional bond as the driver would be able to know the engine that will get fitted to the car and all other parts as well. This will turn out to be a one of its kind experience as the customer would be able to see his car in making.
This type of plant tour is not been offered by any other auto manufacturers yet and GM believes that it will definitely be a point of attraction for the sports car enthusiasts. The company is also planning to offer another visit to the customers at the time of assembling the parts. This will be offered at some nominal cost but it would be worth spending.
All these initiatives by the company may most probably get the younger drivers for their popular Chevrolet Corvette and it would definitely boost up the sales figures.
