In most cases, age does not make a part less serviceable, if it was a good part to start with. The engine we ran last year used a stock 302 crank that was manufactured in 1969 and used Carrillo rods

Keith & List; Metal parts such as rods, cranks, pistons, rocker arms, bolts, etc. all have a limited fatigue life. This is expressed an "N" cycle life, where "N" is the number of stress cycles that t

Gotta disagree with that one. Aluminum rods may cycle sooner than steel rods, but what's a short time? I've had my best success at Bonneville with aluminum rods and still using them. JB -- Original M

I think one thing you can read between the lines in what Neil wrote is that most of out LSR efforts stress most kinds of rods well above 60% of yield. (Super rods-- like Carillos-- may be an excepti

If we knew what stress was on the aluminum rods, we could look on an "S-N" diagram for that particular alloy and find out how many cycles to failure to expect. How long you can run aluminum rods dep

Good job, Neil. You "told it like it is" very well, and spread a little engineering on the lsr community. Probably Carillos are the best for most lsr aps (like everyone thinks)-- but even Carillos wi

I have broken lots of rods at Bonneville, all stock rods except one, which was a Carrillo. In this case it was because of a spun bearing. I can say one think negative about the Carrillo. It made a b

You are absolutely correct. The "S-N" diagram "number of cycles" scale is logarithmic and at low stresses, the curve flattens out so the fatigue life is essentially indefinite. When we're talking ab

maybe rambling-- as you say-- but some good, solid, engineering points. However, I think you mean the S-N curve is exponential, not "logarithmic"; as stress increases, the number of cycles to failur
