Influence of weight of reciprocating parts on chassis in ge neral and engine in particular is emphasized as being of greater importance than actual saving in weight of parts themselves; tabulation of specific strengths of various materials used in automotive engineering shows advantages of aluminum as compared with steel; comparison of steel and aluminum connecting rods; advantages of using aluminum in connecting rod to secure stiffness.
