The present work deals with the redesign of the connecting rod, as a link in the kinematic chain, defining itself as the main objective; to increase the power of the MCI by reason of geometric modifications assuring the fulfillment of the conditions of functionality and the restrictions of resistance by means of the use of systems CAD / CAE. Power measurements were made on a double roller dynamometer per axle before modifying the connecting rod and then with the proposed redesign variant, among which a contrast was made achieving an increase in power greater than 9%, with a reduction of 39,08 gr of material.
