Phyxius Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Would anyone be interested in having a set of forged rods that will bolt onto the L-series cranks and be long enough and have the right small ends for VG and SR pistons? I'm just tossing around the idea, and haven't really contacted anyone. Just gauging interest. I'm sure they'd be on par as far as cost goes with other forged rods...maybe we could get them cheaper if I do all the CAD work, or some of you know someone who can mill and heat treat them.

Phyxius Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 This is a rod I drew up that will allow one to use VG30DETT pistons with a stock L28 crank. It is VERY beefy (heavy) and could probably handle over 1000hp at over 10000rpm. This would have to be machined out of a solid billet of steel. It has provisions for 3/8" or 10mm rod bolts. I plan on drawing a H-beam and a 'x beam' pauter-type rod. These will probably be a little more on the lighter side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
