I've run them in my 2110, later 2276 for 12 years with no regrets or problems.

Title: Re: wich rods length ???? Post by: DKK Ted on April 27, 2010, 06:48:58 am If I had my way, I would have gotten my Ti Rods shorter than 5.5 for my 83 stroke. I'm running a full weight car. I totally agree with John. SHORT.

Title: Re: wich rods length ???? Post by: Jason Foster on April 27, 2010, 13:39:35 pm Some say it doesn't matter some say shorter is more torque or bottom end longer is more top end. I'm running 5.4 with FK10 and 86 stroke. 163 ft lb at wheels I say short.

Title: Re: wich rods length ???? Post by: RhoadsVW on April 27, 2010, 20:25:27 pm Either the 5.352 or 5.400. I ran the 5.500 and lost to much bottom end for the weight of the car and did not gain any top end for the amount lost of the bottom end. Dave Rhoads
Title: Re: wich rods length ???? Post by: stealth67vw on April 28, 2010, 03:16:40 am Another vote for 5.352 rods. I'm using a set of Eagles on a 78 stroke.
