Custom Pauter Aircooled Connecting Rods 130mm – 911

Details

Custom 130mm Pauter X-beam lightweight connecting rods for use in aircooled Porsche engines when upgrading to the 80.4mm stroke crankshaft from the Porsche 911 997 GT3RS 4.0 engines. Please note these rods are longer than the factory GT3 RS 4.0 connecting rods and are set up for 22mm wrist pins with a 25.4mm pin end width (wider than factory rod) and are for normally aspirated engines only.

LN Engineering also offers custom 104mm Mahle Motorsports pistons (as shown) when using the GT3RS 80.4mm crankshaft along with these custom 130mm Pauter connecting rods in an aircooled Mezger Porsche 911 engine (both sold separately).

Pauter connecting rods utilize E4340 vacuum-melt chrome-moly forgings and are fully CNC machined and heat-treated to Rockwell C36. Pauter rods feature full coverage shot peening and are end-to-end balanced in sets. Each Pauter connecting rod comes with ARP 2000 bolts rated at 220,000 psi tensile strength and aluminum-bronze wrist pin bushings standard. Pauter’s unique X-beam construction balances strength and weight reduction while reducing horsepower losses due to crankcase windage. We recommend running Pauter rods with our coated Clevite race connecting rod bearings for both street and track (sold separately).
