I=E2=80=99ve used them for 10 years with no problems. That said I run a =
6200 rpm motor but have had it to 7K when I forgot to=20
set a rev limiter and had a screeching 914/6 right next to me. ( as I =
was going by )
If your going to use them have the big ends checked for round and the =
wrist pins sized or at least checked.
I didn=E2=80=99t have any problem but I did hear a report from someone =
that the big ends on theirs weren=E2=80=99t perfectly round but =
correctable.

yes, we used quite a few sets in our engine shop for high HP jap =

i know of a factory in Taiwan that lists thousands of different sets , =

you want. their wholesale price is typcially US$45/rod, bought in =

Has anyone used these? They look like Carrillo knockoffs. 4340 steel, =
ARP bolts, shotpeened. Priced right.
