Does anyone have some stock length rods that are forged or billet they dont use anymore? I dont want to wait and have some manufactured
Do you really want to deal with having to make wrist pin spacers when you could use the small journal BBC rods instead and not have the hassle?sdiesel":3uv01eak said:Curious how this turned out for you. The LS " DISCOVERY" by Muller may be the best news we have had in a good long while . when , if I get around to my turbo long block, the LS for a turbo will be my choice.
The small journal BBC rod weighs about the same as a 240 six rod (just over 700 grams) with the same big end/small end weight ratio.Firepower354":y4qwmez6 said:The extra 80-90 grams of the "BB" rod, over the longer "LS" rod, is likely in the big end, if I were to guess. At least that's how my Eagle set was 15-20 years ago. Maybe not a big deal, but a deal. Not sure on the weight/strength math of the .990 pin, either, but a box-skirt piston probably makes that moot, with no unsupported pin.
