Connecting Rod picture

Sorry, I know this has been listed before. I remember seeing the other day a picture of three connecting rods hanging on a wall, the DuraMax, Power Stroke, and Cummins. Can somebody post the link?<br><br>Thanks

Re:Connecting Rod picture

Thats what I was talking about, thank you very much. My uncle just bought a 2003 Ford PS. He wanted the Dodge, but no dealers could provide what he was looking for, and he had cash ready to spend. So I want to show him this and say.....I told you Dodge was the way to go<br><br>M O P A R (Move Over Power Approaching Rapidly)

Re:Connecting Rod picture

One more thing.. PSD connecting rods are made from powdered metal. It is not not nearly as strong as cast or forged. <br><br>
