be wary when it comes to internal parts dont just buy the cheapest what you can buy .when it breaks you'll have no one to blame but yourself

So these rods when corrected will fit without notching the block on a D series ?

Re: Place to get the cheapest rods
 
Jesus Christ. ALL AFTERMARKET D SERIES RODS REQUIRE THE BLOCK TO BE NOTCHED.

The D series rods that TunerToys originally had in stock that were thought to be for the D16A6, D16Z6, AND D16Y8 were actually D16A1 rods, which weren't what everyone wants. When we talk about the "correct" rods coming in stock, that's referring to the D16A6, Z6 AND Y8 rods.

ALL OF THEM WILL REQUIRE NOTCHING. The only rods that don't require notching are the factory ones that came in the block originally.

I just saw another post where he said he's expecting them in a couple weeks.

Here is the link: Tuner Toys rods

Re: Place to get the cheapest rods
 
We are still expecting them in a couple of weeks. Our order is already in with the manufacturer, and the payement has been sent. We'll post it up in GD when they are ready for sale.

Yes on notching, as stated by Stealthy.

Not sure about matching Scats, send me a link to the auction at "sales@tunertoys.com". If it is an established seller, and not some kind of close-out or one of a kind, I may consider it...


Thanks Guys!~

Craig
