Title: Experiences in crankshafts and connecting rods ??? Post by: Carsten on February 26, 2010, 17:36:38 pm Ok, just for getting some informations from all over the world about 2 important things inside an engine :
Crankshaft and rods . What experiences did you have with the type of crank and rods you used ? There are so many different cranks and rods on the market ??? In my last engine there was a SCAT crank with Carillos inside , so that was good... but expensive... So what did you out there use and what experiences did you make after driving street ...strip ? Engine combo will be 82 or 84 stroke , H-beam rods , with 94mm bore. This is what manufactures i found: SCAT EMPI Bugpack Demello DPR DRD crank and rods from lowbugget.com Gene Berg...uuuuuhhh $$$$$ Greets , Carsten Title: Re: Experiences in crankshafts and connecting rods ???

You could have them on display above your fireplace. Regarding rods, why not use any rod you like combined with Carrilo SPS bolts? Title: Re: Experiences in crankshafts and connecting rods ???

There is really no need to purchase the SPS Carrillo Rod Bolts, lest you are apt to throwing around money. Try ARP's link for their replacement bolts. No I do not mean ARP 2000 bolts. http://www.arp-bolts.com/catalog/Catalog.PDF/ARPCatalog_0035.pdf (http://www.arp-bolts.com/catalog/Catalog.PDF/ARPCatalog_0035.pdf) Perform a Meta Search on the web (Dogpile, IXquick or Google) for suppliers of ARP connecting rod bolts. Have Fun, Chris Andrews - The Mailman Title: Re: Experiences in crankshafts and connecting rods ???

Rimco Super rods work well too.
