Build your Chrysler Gen III 5.7L / 6.1L HEMI V8 rotating assembly around Manley 14460-8, a 8-piece connecting rod set in the Pro Series Lightweight I-Beam range. This version combines 6.240 in. center-to-center length, a 2.252 in. big-end housing bore and a 0.927 in. wrist-pin configuration with 7/16 in. ARP 2000 cap screws. The exact dimensions, material and supplied fasteners identify the rod combination you are buying.
Manley’s Lightweight Pro Series I-Beam is a fully machined forged 4340 rod aimed at performance builds where rod mass is part of the rotating-assembly plan. The profile is developed within a named weight class rather than treated as a generic I-Beam. Shot peening after machining and individual magnetic-particle inspection complement the precise dimensions and supplied ARP hardware.
This Gen III HEMI family is built around a 6.240 in. stock-length rod. Manley offers distinct small-end configurations within the range, so this MPN’s listed wrist-pin diameter and pin-end bore identify the version being supplied. The housing bore and journal configuration complete the dimensional package.
The 0.9281 in. pin-end bore and 2.252 in. big-end housing bore describe the two rod ends, while the 6.240 in. center-to-center measurement defines rod length. Average rod weight is approximately 595 g per rod, giving this exact MPN a useful weight reference alongside its dimensions. The pin end measures 1.000 in. wide.
The supplied 7/16 in. ARP 2000 cap screws are part of this rod’s specification. This ARP 2000 version brings the stated fastener grade together with the 4340 steel I-Beam profile, pairing the documented fastener package with the forged rod construction.
