Did you call Effinghams?? (search the parts list for 198 connecting rods)

I bet this is were the eBag guy is getting them, recondition units were just over $30.00 each, no core exchange needed.

Let us know how many they still have in stock.

:D

My Engine Builder found a set in Olympia. Cost me a tad more, but supports my local guys. They'll be here shortly.

Virgil is going to mock-up the motor so we can get clearances right.

Does anyone have the dimensions that I will need for prepping the pistons? Any info I can get for my machinist will help.

Are there any other clearance issues?

This will be with the 0.430" lift cam (Comp Cams) and the KB268's. I was not going to stroke this engine.

With this modification, approximately what should we mill off the head for 9.5:1-10:1?

Thanks for all your input!

Post subject:  Bump... 198 & "Long Rod" info
Some good discussion on a more recent Long Rod build-up.

I need to talk to Chuck to see why the parts list is not working, must be problems left over from the last server crash.
