The pic, is the Toyota Turbo rod, and the Carrillo Porsche rod, the bolt, is a Oliver Rods 7/16 cap screw bolt.

I will be turning this rod into a cap screw rod, the rods will be drilled and taped for these bolts, and then clearanced, for a very large stroker, and the small end will be bushed for a .927" Chevy pin.

What stroke is the crank?
What pistons do you plan to use? Do you know the pin heights available?
What is the intended RPM range?
Headwork- Are you going for super vlume or Hi Velocity?

All these things and more will determine the best rod for the application.

Hope you like running .600+ barrel shims

Why would you be looking at these rods? By the time you mod the rods/crank/pistons are you saving anything?

And unless you have an 82+ stroke crank the rod ratio will be a killer and you won't have anything for chamber filling.

The crank, will be around 86mm+? Clearance issues. smash.gif

The pistons, with a .930" pin height.

8,000 +

To, take advantage of the bore and stroke, high volume.

Some of the previous, are going to depend on the Cam , Heads and exhaust. All the above, will be changed, and then changed again, and then maybe even changed again. smash.gif

The bare minimum length of rod to run with an 86mm crank is 5.7"

Now.. With that said do you have any idea the issues that you will run into just fitting an 86 stroke crank? For starters the profile on the rod cap becaomes ULTRA important because collisions between the cam/connecting rods are your biggest challenge.

Now, the other issue is a set of cylinder heads that will allow that big of a stroker to turn 8K... according to bore size... My MassIVe heads would even have a hard time with that job in many applications.

Running this much stroke requiresan extensive amount of patience and I certainly do not recommend it for someone that has not built a smaller stroker TIV before.

BTW- Chances are that a smaller engine would be not only easier to build with less hassles and expense, but would also make MORE power.

We really need to talk, I can make this so much easier for you, especially if you do indeed want to go to 86mm stroke- but I would not... Keep it 80mmm or less and use a MassIVe combo, no way you can go wrong.

Mark, I wanted to let you know you were wrong biggrin.gif

After the math, I will only need a .593" Barrel Spacer happy11.gif

I, chose these rods, after looking at quit a few of others.

The Scat & CB 6" rods, were $249 & $219, for Chevy journals and .866 wrist pins. The wrist pins holes are to small to be opened up safely to fit a .927" pin. All the after market stuff is taylored for the Type 1

There is very little choice for type lV rods, other than having them made at Cunningham ($1000) or Carrillo ($1200) or Pauter ($800), or even Oliver (?).

I, bought these (6 Rods) Toyota rods for $25, the Brand New Oliver 7/16 caps screw bolts for $53 (10 bolts), so as of now, I have $78 in the rods, but before I am finished,I will have $200 to $250 in them, and have exactly what I need.

There's, plenty of room in the small end to go to the .927" pin, there is even enough room to off set the pin install, to loose a little bit of the length of the rod.

As for the crank, I can have it cut for any Rod I decide to use, at any stroke.

The Pistons, I already have, 4.125" bore 1/16, 1/16, 3/16 ring lands, .930 ch, weight at 410g, with 85g Titanium .927" pins, with a set of JE rings.

I, just pulled my motor last week( 2632 105,7 x 75), it goes back together this week, I hope, with a couple of changes. smash.gif

104.9 x 80 a 2766, but it will have the rabbit rods, that I have bushed for .927" pins, and BB Chevy 3/8 rod bolts, (the bolts were the other 1/2 of the set I put in my 2.0 rods ARP Wave Loc's).

I, probally am saving some, and still getting whaaat I need.
