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

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?

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
