ARC 3.595 Inch Billet Rod with 0.490 Pin for Wiseco 3-Ring Predator Pistons

The ARC6236 represents a breakthrough in Predator rod design: a 3.595-inch center-to-center length with 0.490-inch wrist pin, tailored for seamless integration with the latest Wiseco 3-ring pistons in 212cc HEMI and non-HEMI engines. No need to modify the piston top—it's truly drop-in ready for high-compression racing.

• CNC-machined from domestic 7075 T-651 aluminum for aerospace-level toughness.
• Oil groove in crank bore channels lubricant via integrated dipper arm.
• Wrist pin bore features reservoir and reinforced bosses for durability.
• Includes bearings and ARP high-tensile bolts; torque to 170 inch/lbs lubricated.

Designed for OHV engines pushing high RPMs and compression, this rod elevates your kart's capabilities by supporting aggressive setups without compromise. It enables fuller strokes for torque-rich performance, helping you dominate starts and maintain momentum in sprints. The advanced oiling system ensures constant protection, reducing heat and wear in prolonged races—vital for staying organized and competitive. Racers praise its compatibility with aftermarket pistons, simplifying builds that yield measurable speed gains. Note: Not for Honda GX200, 196cc clones, Ghost 212cc, or 224cc cranks. This rod isn't just stronger; it's smarter, optimizing every cycle for efficiency and power. For those engineering for the podium, it provides the reliable link between crank and piston, turning potential into pace.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this rod compatible with my stock Predator 212cc piston?

A: No, this rod is specifically engineered for use with the new Wiseco 3-ring pistons. It is designed to be a drop-in solution for those specific aftermarket pistons without requiring modifications to the piston top.

Q: What is the correct torque specification for the rod bolts?

A: The included ARP high-tensile bolts should be torqued to 170 inch/lbs. Ensure the threads are properly lubricated before torquing to achieve the correct clamping force.

Q: Can I use this rod in a Honda GX200 or Ghost 212cc engine?

A: No. This rod is designed specifically for Predator 212cc HEMI and non-HEMI engines. It is not compatible with Honda GX200, 196cc clones, Ghost 212cc, or 224cc crankshafts.

Q: Does this rod require any special break-in or maintenance?

A: Because this rod features an advanced oiling system with an integrated dipper arm and reservoir, it is built for high-RPM durability. However, always ensure your engine oil is clean and at the proper level to take full advantage of the rod's lubrication channels during high-compression racing.
