This page gathers the uprated engine parts for the Chevrolet 5.7L LS1 V8. One reference is active here: a set of 8 ZRP forged connecting rods in 4340 steel, I-beam design, supplied with ARP 2000 con rod bolts.
The forged connecting rod is the first part to change when power goes up: it copes far better with load and revs than the OEM rod. Paired with forged pistons, it secures a road, track or drift build on the LS1. Please check the engine code of your V8 before ordering.
This page gathers the uprated engine parts for the Chevrolet Small Block V8. One reference is active here: a set of 8 ZRP forged connecting rods in 4340 steel, I-beam design, with a 144.78mm centre to centre length and ARP 2000 con rod bolts.
The cornerstone of any build, the forged rod withstands the load and revs that an OEM rod can no longer take once power climbs. Please check the centre to centre length your block needs before ordering, and pair these rods with forged pistons.

3 clicks are all it takes to identify the parts you need across our comprehensive Chevrolet range: legendary Small Blocks (283, 327, 350, 383 stroker), monstrous Big Blocks (396, 427, 454, 502), revolutionary LS units (LS1, LS2, LS3, LS7, LSX), and the latest generation LT engines (LT1, LT4, LT5). Our configurations suit drag racing builds chasing an extra 200bhp, Pro Touring projects targeting 250bhp naturally aspirated, or turbo/supercharged projects comfortably exceeding an extra 300bhp to dominate track and road alike.
Our French and European warehouses guarantee the most competitive prices in Europe with immediate availability across the entire Chevrolet Performance catalogue. With 15 years of expertise on American V8s, our technical team guides you towards the ideal combination. Express order processing before 5pm, with guaranteed delivery within 72 hours across Europe.

Q: Which piston/rod combinations are most popular for my Chevrolet V8? A: For LS engines, the JE PISTONS FSR plus MANLEY H-beam rods combo dominates. On classic Small Blocks, WISECO Pro Tru plus ZRP I-beam offers the best value for money. Big Blocks favour the MANLEY Platinum Series to withstand the huge torque. We adapt compression and length to your specific project.
Q: How do I choose between ARP 8740 and L19 studs for my Chevrolet? A: ARP 8740 studs are perfectly suited up to 700bhp naturally aspirated. Beyond that, particularly with turbo or supercharger set-ups, L19 studs stand out for their superior strength. For nitrous applications or high boost (15+ PSI), we always recommend L19 studs with parallel washers.
Q: Are your parts suitable for Chevrolets imported into Europe? A: Absolutely, we specialise in American vehicles in Europe. Our range covers both US-spec models and officially imported versions (Corvette C6/C7/C8, Camaro 2010+). Our stock includes both metric and imperial specifications to make fitting easier.
