I’m searching the forum, but haven’t found the posts…

Didn’t we do a group buy several years ago with K1 rods designed for the cast crank?

I’m finding rods available to purchase for the forged crank, but not cast…

My young friend, Steven, purchased a set of Wiseco pistons, but they are the 1.625 compression height designed for the longer 7” rods…
He has a cast crank engine in his D100.

They were available for a while but I know they are sold out at Molnar.

I would call Molnar and ask. They did several sets in a group buy. I'd be in for another set. Might be more $$ if not more than about 6 sets, but what the heck... You can also take the forged crank rods and narrow them and relocate the bearing slots. I've thought of doing that.

I've been emailing with Marshall at Campbell.

Minimum run would be 40 rods, so 7 sets.

The limiting factor is people actually willing to come up with a deposit.

Count me in for a set of these if an order actually gets set up.

What does pricing look like, Rob? Did you end up talking with Tom Molnar, or did he direct you to Campbell?

Thanks,
Lou
