Hey guys,
A couple of years back while these rods were being rebranded all over the place and sold for $600-$1200 bucks by various "enterprising" individuals, a buddy of mine located the factory that was making them in China and bought about 100 rods. I snuck in an order for a 130mm set for a turbo build that is still on the back burner. I'm sick of tripping over the box and frankly am not sure if this build will ever pan out.
130mm is "E" rod size, and E block + I head makes for a good combo for FI. Use these and either stock pistons or forged, O-ringed block, and you should be good for many years of abuse.
These take a 3/8" rod bolt. Most vendors package them with ARP2000's which can be had from summit for about $80/set. My buddy bought them in v8 sets but I can confirm the actual part #. I'm 95% they take 3/8 threads, 1.5" under cap height, but like I said I can confirm that. They can definitely be bought in pairs, but it ends up being more expensive. I'm sure there's a 6 cyl car with same rod bolt specs, which should be the cheapest way to buy with no left overs. I'll look into it.
Cheapest ebay seller at the moment is asking $250 for 4, in M50 size (140mm), not including bolts. MINE ARE SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD
