The stocker is 5.70" center to center. The pretty rod is 6.00" C-C. What do you thing the weight difference is?

BTW, the next race 170 will use the rod on the right with a 1.25" CD piston, maybe an off the shelf Neon piston. The pin is the right size.

Crud, forgot the picture!

OK, Mine were 240 Grams lighter than stock, so I tossed 250 up there. Those are even cleaner than the ones I had worked up for the hooptie! :D

Yes. It's also got a little hole the length of the rod to oil the pin.
