Upgrade your Gallardo’s bottom end with Carrillo Pro‑H forged H‑beam rods — premium, motorsport‑grade connecting rods built to handle high horsepower, high RPM, or forced‑induction builds. Crafted from Carrilloloy (a high‑strength steel alloy), these rods deliver a rock‑solid connection between crank and pistons, reducing risk of rod stretch or failure under extreme stress. Balanced, durable, and race‑ready — they’re ideal if you’re pushing the V10 far beyond stock spec and want reliability you can trust.
Compatible with Lamborghini Gallardo 5.0 L V10 (2004–2008) and Gallardo 5.2 L V10 variants, as long as the engine block accepts 154 mm center‑to‑center rod length.
Offered as a full ten‑rod set (enough for all cylinders) with matching hardware (rod bolts) included — suitable for full engine builds or rebuilds.
10 × forged H‑beam connecting rods (one per cylinder)
20 × high‑strength “CARR” multiphase rod bolts (special fasteners optimized for these rods)
Rod beam style: Pro‑H H‑beam (high‑strength, load‑resistant design)
Center‑to‑center length: ≈ 154 mm (matching Gallardo V10 standard dimensions)
Big‑end bore (B/E) diameter: ~ 56.80 mm; Pin (small end) bore: 20 mm
Weight per rod (approx): ~ 520–524 g (rotating mass ~ 355–358g, reciprocating ~ 166g, depends on specific rod)
Material: Carrilloloy (USA‑made forged steel alloy, similar to 4340) — forged, heat‑treated, and precision‑machined for consistency and strength.
Extreme strength & durability — H‑beam forged rods built to resist high tensile and compressive forces typical in high‑RPM, high‑power builds (naturally aspirated or forced induction).
Race‑ready fasteners — Includes Carrillo “CARR” multiphase bolts, engineered for high clamping force and multiple torque cycles — essential for reliability under stress and repeated builds.
Weight‑matched, balanced set — Rods are precision‑matched to ensure even reciprocating/rotating mass, reducing vibration and increasing mechanical sympathy for high‑RPM operation.
Forged construction — Forged steel delivers better fatigue resistance, improved grain structure, and higher strength compared with cast/OEM rods — ideal for aggressive builds.
Proven motorsport pedigree — Used in many race and high‑power builds worldwide; widely regarded as a top reliability upgrade when pushing V‑engines beyond stock limits.
