| Post subject: | LONG ROD? |
i saw in a machine shop longer rods that the ones in 198 cid...they are 20cm!!! from center to center..the piston pin is floating with a bushing...22 mm aproximately. the rod was 3 cm wide fronm the bottom. looked good quality, with good bolts etc. you can find these from JAGUARS...if you can use that long rod in a de-stroked 225? for what? i do not know, but it seems like you actually could find a better quality long rod maybe from a european engine...? have to investigate. actually i could need a rod that is in midlle of 198 & 225 rod...do you know any that would suite a 225 crank?? jyri.eramaa@jwt.fi |

| Post subject: | Re: Long Connecting Rods for the SL6 |
The big problem with finding other rods to fit a SL6 is that the SL6 crank pin (rod journal) is real wide. It measures right around 1.210 inches so someone do the math, that 3 cm (or 30 mm) rod may be wide enough and 20 cm long, that almost 8 inches! Are they forged steel? Trouble is that I don't see many Jag engines in the junk yards around here! DD Quote:

J&M engine dynamics in Nebraska, or Cox Bros in Ohio can get you custom hipo rods too. Cheers, Lou madsenl@its.caltech.edu |
