Looking at doing another run of billet rods. Checking interest.

I missed the first run. Has anyone been running them yet? Stock length only? Price?

Also is this for stock stroke or for the 6mm strokers?

probably stock stroke, but may look at the 6mm stroker if enough interest. Group buy price would be the same as last time. Would know for sure once the order details are presented.

Count me in for two. Will these be getting the changes requested?

Two stock or 6mm stroker? As far as changes, if you mean the big end thickness yes.

I have installed one on a brand new crank for my "new" engine. I like the rod very much, it looks stronger around the wrist pin area and it has a bronze bushing in there.

peterock, if you have trouble getting enough orders I might also buy one.

Stroker may be a good way to go

I was talking to Tim today...I would be in for a stroker for sure

I'd be in for one 6mm or maybe even 2 if it helps and I can talk to the wife into it. But one for sure.

Are the whole cranks usually trashed when the bearing goes out? I know the rods are done for but would I be able to press this onto a stock crank with a z400 bearing if the crank wasn't too damaged?

If so I'd take a stroker one and a stock one, but I don't know of the last group buy, how much will these be going for?
