RE: stock fe rods

By Gary XL - 10/20/2004 12:03:19 PM; IP 153.26.176.34

I built a 2 BBl hi-po motor (9.5-1 cp) from a 64 Maruader back in 1986, drove it for a year and put it in the barn until this year. The rods are stock, resizes and balanced with new arp bolts, also used a small Cran solid cam but can't find the spec sheet after 20 years. This motor has seen 6800 rpm in 86-87 in my 64 Galaxie XL stick convertible, adn has been to about 6500 since pulled out of the barn in May this year. Changed the oil, replaced a bent pushrod,a dn it runs beter now than I remember it running whein it was parked (could have been the bent pushrod huh?)
Point is Yes the factory rods are good peices when properly prepped.

This thread, so far...
