GT6M Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 The Mr M Speeding rods, { wel mine } needed 2 wee cut oots on each cyl at the botom as,t really thick H beam rods touched blok reet at bottom even wid the later bloks cut oots init too, 2 smal slots, 1/8th x 18th was all that was needed. t,other thing i,d doo wid Mr MS rods, is t,counter sink the oil hole int top oft rod, so a wee bit of oil can get in easier, !! its just a straight wol, no got a cupped bit like an OE rod,es M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TriumphV8 Posted December 11, 2018 Report Share Posted December 11, 2018 Can not be much because I always combined them with the VW pistons and they never touched the bore. Bore than is 76.5 or 77mm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
