PROJECT TERRY LLC Boosts Engine Performance with Cutting-Edge Connecting Rods

SEATTLE, WA – October 26, 2023 – PROJECT TERRY LLC, a Seattle-based engineering and manufacturing company specializing in high-performance engine components, is making waves in the automotive and motorsports industries with its newly enhanced line of performance connecting rods. Based out of 2107 Elliott Ave Ste 303, and reachable at 603-728-3489, the company is committed to delivering quality and innovation directly to engine builders and enthusiasts. For years, PROJECT TERRY LLC has quietly been a go-to source for demanding customers needing robust and reliable engine internals. But now, they’re stepping into the spotlight with a focused push on their connecting rod technology – and for good reason. These aren’t your run-of-the-mill rods; they’re meticulously engineered to handle serious horsepower, higher RPMs, and the relentless stress of both racing and high-performance street applications. What’s the Big Deal with Connecting Rods Anyway? Let’s break it down. Connecting rods are absolutely crucial parts of your engine. They connect the piston to the crankshaft, translating the piston’s up-and-down motion into rotational force that eventually powers your wheels. They’re under incredible stress with every single combustion cycle. If these rods fail, it’s catastrophic. Think engine damage, a lot of downtime, and a hefty repair bill. Most factory connecting rods are built to a price point, meaning they’re often made from less-than-ideal materials and with tolerances that don’t leave a lot of room for increased performance. When you start modifying your engine – adding a turbo, supercharger, nitrous, or just pushing the revs higher – those factory rods quickly become a weak link. That's where PROJECT TERRY LLC steps in. Engineering for Extreme Performance PROJECT TERRY LLC's performance connecting rods aren’t just stronger; they're smarter. The company focuses on a few key areas to maximize strength, reliability, and performance: Material Selection: They don’t mess around with cheap alloys. PROJECT TERRY LLC uses only high-quality, aerospace-grade 4340 chromoly steel, known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and fatigue resistance. This isn't just marketing speak; 4340 steel can handle insane amounts of stress and heat without failing. They also offer options in other materials, depending on the specific application. Design & Geometry: The rods aren’t just beefier versions of factory rods. PROJECT TERRY LLC utilizes advanced CAD/CAM software and finite element analysis (FEA) to optimize the rod’s geometry. This means carefully designed I-beam or H-beam profiles, optimized wrist pin bore placement, and strategically placed lightening pockets. The goal? Maximize strength while minimizing weight. Lighter rods reduce reciprocating mass, allowing the engine to rev quicker and produce more horsepower. Manufacturing Precision: They don’t cut corners when it comes to manufacturing. Each rod is CNC-machined from a single billet of steel, ensuring consistent quality and dimensional accuracy. They also use precise heat treatment processes to achieve the optimal balance of hardness and toughness. Everything is inspected multiple times throughout the process. Wrist Pin Options: PROJECT TERRY LLC understands that every engine build is unique. They offer a variety of wrist pin options, including fully floating pins with bronze or other low-friction inserts. This setup minimizes wrist pin stress and allows for smoother operation. Beyond the Specs: Real-World Benefits So, what does all this engineering wizardry translate to for you? Increased Horsepower and Torque: Stronger, lighter connecting rods allow your engine to rev higher and produce more power. They reduce stress on the piston and crankshaft, leading to more efficient combustion. Enhanced Reliability: These rods are built to withstand extreme abuse, reducing the risk of failure, even under the most demanding conditions. This means less downtime and more time enjoying your ride. Improved Engine Response: Reducing reciprocating mass makes your engine feel more responsive and eager to rev. Throttle response is sharper, and the engine feels more alive. Peace of Mind: Knowing that your engine internals are built to the highest standards gives you the confidence to push your engine to the limit, knowing it can handle it. Who are these rods for? PROJECT TERRY LLC's performance connecting rods are ideal for a wide range of applications, including: Turbocharged and Supercharged Engines: The increased cylinder pressures generated by forced induction put tremendous stress on connecting rods. These rods are designed to handle that stress without fail. Nitrous Oxide Applications: Similar to forced induction, nitrous oxide significantly increases cylinder pressures and demands stronger connecting rods. High-Revving Naturally Aspirated Engines: Even without forced induction, high-revving engines put a lot of stress on connecting rods due to their high operating speeds. Drag Racing: Drag racing engines require maximum strength and reliability, and these rods deliver. Road Racing: Road racing engines are subjected to high RPMs and sustained stress, making these rods an excellent choice. Performance Street Cars: If you’re building a high-performance street car, you want internals that can handle the abuse of spirited driving. Customization Options Available PROJECT TERRY LLC doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. They offer a range of customization options, including: Rod Length: Custom rod lengths can be manufactured to suit your specific engine build and desired compression ratio. Wrist Pin Size: Rods can be manufactured with various wrist pin sizes to match your pistons. Big End Bore Size: Different big end bore sizes are available to accommodate various crankshaft journal sizes. Coatings and Finishes: A variety of coatings and finishes are available to protect the rods from corrosion and wear.
