CONNECTING ROD
A connecting rod (also cataloged as E4001) from the crankshaft and connecting rods section, 1964-1965 catalog appearances.
This is a connecting rod, part number 70-4001, listed in the catalog under the older E4001 code as well. It shows up in the crankshaft and connecting rods section of the parts books, which tells you it's one of the pair that links the pistons to the crankshaft inside the bottom end of the engine.

The catalog record for this one is thin. It appears in a couple of catalog rows spanning 1964 to 1965, but we don't have a specific model tied to it beyond that. If you're rebuilding a bottom end and need to match this rod, bring in your crankshaft or old rod for comparison, or call the shop and we can talk through what you've got before you order.
Given how little detail the record carries, treat this as a lead to chase down rather than a confirmed fit — connecting rods vary by journal size and rod length even within similar years, so getting it wrong means a bottom end that won't go together right.
We've never carried this one. Tell us what you're after and we'll go looking — you'll get a price and photos before you commit to anything.
