Floating or press fit pistons?

Do they have oil squirt holes???

"Light" rods? So they are for a stock 273/318???
 
MP does not rate them for HP...but what are most 4340 I beam rods rated too.

Has bronze bushing...floating...there are no hole drilled in the small ends.

Dont know what a 273/318 rod weights..these weight 715 grams.

If they have oil squirt holes (like the stock rods) then there will be a hole drilled on the big end (crank hole) between the cap and rod opposite the anchor slots.

Some aftermarket rods delete the oil squirt holes.

Is 715 grams the weight they provide or did you weigh them?

They look like they would be similar in strength to an Eagle SIR or Scat I-beam, but weigh more. Extra weight must be in the balance pads.

PM sent.
 
yes..the balance pads ....I weight a couple rods..


Not a squirter...no oil holes in big end
