Probably a stupid question here, but does anyone have any way of distinguishing the different types of con rod material for the 200? According to Mike's writeup they came in a variety of materials from the early 70's on. I have an engine torn down and need to know if I should look for another set of rods from an earlier engine if these are not forged as this engine will be turbocharged.
Any pics of forged vs iron vs whatever rods or casting numbers would be awesome.
Thanks in advance
