yes, we used quite a few sets in our engine shop for high HP jap engines,
never triumph. quality seems reasonable. the only on-going issue we found
with cheap chinese rods like this is the big end tunnel is imperfectly
honed. it was not uncommon to have to re-size them. in fact we did a few
hundred for one importer at one time. we were never able to confirm if the
bolts were really ARP, or just copies
i know of a factory in Taiwan that lists thousands of different sets ,
including various TR rods, and will brand them with whatever name/logo you
want. their wholesale price is typcially US$45/rod, bought in quantities
like 50. They will provide steel specs if asked. They have some real
oddities , like 1mm longer or shorter for various applications, so its
obvious they make for performance applications, not just replacement for
mom and dad shopping carts
