This appears to be the right connecting rod for my engine (stock -6) but I wasn't sure what the final digit (the S) was for. Anyone know what it means?

Thanks,
Bob

I don't doubt that it is fine and will work but the engine has been rebuilt before (and increased to 2.2L) so I am just curious what parts might have been replaced or upgraded. So far everything appears to be what it should be, but I'm not exactly an expert.

Thanks for the help,
Bob

at a minimum you got 84 mm p/c. check also for piston oil squirters, oil bypass modification, 930 or carrera tensioners, replaced "wire" crank w/ counterweighted. heads should be reblt only once. If you need another set, I have 2 fresh sets laying around here, lemme know. I'm in la.
