Import Tips
• Provide CAD drawings showing connecting rod dimensions and engine-specific mounting features to prove principal use with spark-ignition engines
• Include heat treatment and material test reports (e.g
• 4340 chromoly steel) as CBP often requests metallurgical validation
• Avoid bulk generic shipments without model-specific markings, which can trigger 8483 classification as plain bearings
