rodded
Wrapped on cylinders
Rodded describes something equipped with or reinforced by rods.
In construction, rodded concrete contains steel reinforcement bars: The foundation was rodded for earthquake resistance.
In automotive slang, a rodded engine has been modified with performance parts—connecting rods, pushrods, or similar components.
A car that's been rodded has been hot-rodded or customized for speed.
