You need to rehone in order to seat new rings. If the bores look mint with good crosshatching, you just need a light glaze break hone. All in all not as bad as it could be - a few hundred bucks and you're back in the saddle assraping all comers. :) |
Re: motor finally shit on me (UPDATE)
eagle rods are rated at 900hp. ARP 2000 with 3/8 bolts, 7/16 head. thats the ones I have.

Re: motor finally shit on me (UPDATE)
The pre-ARP 2000 bolt rods are known good to 1200 on a couple of different cars, they only had problems spinning past 9k reliably. Keep in mind 1200whp on an Eagle is like 250whp on a D16 rod... Great budget pieces, they are Carillo clones.

Re: motor finally shit on me (UPDATE)
I just came from the machine shop, to get the rods checked, they said they are reusable as is. the surfaces are smooth, and diameter even. so I'll be back spanking ass soon. but my next build will come soon.
