New MGP aluminum rods....SOLD BOTH RODS AND PISTONS
« on: July 25, 2020, 08:55:27 AM »
I had these earmarked for my 352 build, but I've decided to just stay with the factory crankshaft, Molnar rods, and Racetec pistons. 

So, I have these aluminum rods for sale.   They are brand new.  I've checked bearing clearances with them, but they have not been in an assembled engine.  They have BBC wrist pin and big end dimensions.  They are 7.265" in length. 

I'll take $500 for them. 

If you have a wild hair to build a 352 with a 4.040" bore and a 361 crankshaft that has BBC rod journals, then I also have my Diamond pistons that would go right nice with the MGP rods.  I can sell as a package deal. 

FWIW, you can use these rods in an FE with a 3.5" or 3.78" stroke.  The 3.78" stroke would require a 1.010" compression height piston. 

You can also use these rods in any BBF build with a BBC rod journal on the crank.
