i spent 2000 bux on my a6 block. the only thing i dont have is aftermarket rods. everything is built i bought the stock long block for 100 bux and went from there, i suggest finding something to that affect and then buy the parts and biuld it yourself or have a machine shop do it. then you can have it the way you want it

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

2k and the weakest part of the motor is still in there?

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

yep...i had bought scat rods for it and the machine shop said they hit the cylinder walls and main girdle. i expected the walls but not the girddle. he said if i bought the rods he wanted to use this wouldnt of happened. he bought eagle rods with are identicle to the scat ones and they did the same thing. so i told him to just put the stock rods in and ill will find rods that dont require notching. so im in the proccess of finding rods that dont require notching any suggestions?

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

well notching isnt that hard, but crower rods (the expensive ones) dont hit. im selling some, but WOT has dibs on them

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

which crower rods? name part number? i dont have money now but this is my project for the winter. i just need my car running cause i commute to school, thats the whole reson behind putting the stock rods in

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

well if youre using stock rods...what pistons did you get to work with them, ones for pressed in pins? anyway, there are only two kind of crower rods that i know of, the billet and econo billet. These are the billet ones for floating pins

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

i have srp pistons, and the stock rods worked fine with em. i looked up the econo billet and they are like 400 bux and support 15psi. the other ones are about 700bux

Re:WTB: Build D Block, 350+ hp Intercooler
 

the econo ones require notching just like eagles as far as i know
