Message	...but the flip side is that it is a key piece of info that the Eagle's are lighter. If they take only an equivalent HP-level they are improving durability, due to less stress on the crank, plus they are hindering acceleration "less". Another thing to keep in mind is the shape of the rod. The Eagle is an h-beam design, which puts material in better places, and it is possible to have a stronger beam with less material. You know, beam design in engineering. There are important formulas and stuff to explain. 8)
