Probe Lightweight I beams and rotating assembly componenets
Does anyone have any experience with the probe lightweight I beams and rotating assemblies. They seem to be fairly priced and look like a good piece. Just wondering if anyone has used them and what the results were.

They claim the lightweight I beams are good to 1K HP. At the price that is a terrific deal if they are as advertised.

Whoever told you that....don't listen to them no more.....
We use the RPM as the Probe brand....and Scat is available as a Scat. We do use the Scat 3.400 cranks as Probe brand....because they are better.
As an intellectual exercise I like the Lightweight I-Beam better than the H-Beam. Once the pan is in the motor, no one will ever know the difference.
As I state on every board I participate in.....If your kit costs you less than $3,000.00 it has Chinese rods and a Chinese crank. Most of them are plenty strong for the application.....but fitment can be a .................. challenge.
