Looking at throwing together another 8v motor and get it into the car while we wait for the other motor. Have a nice crank, big race head and deckplated block at the ready. Going to order some pistons and was wondering if anyone has some nice aftermarket rods lying around gathering dust?
Received my last set a week ago and he mentioned they had some in stock. £400 including shipping to Uk unless you want to take up the titanium option !
It just may suit me to get them in the US though. Timewise that is. Sleeved block needs to be honed and pistons should be with that block. I'll see what the local guy says too.

Including import taxes ? Interested in Alusil pistons if the £ is strong against the Aus $

Interesting note, looks like they changed rod design a bit. These look identical to Carrillo rods however I remember a year or two ago, they had few distinctive differences.
EDIT:
found the older style picture, piston side looks different..
100 % Chicom knock offs.... no matter what they claim .... just ask to see their foundry, lol.I imagine in tree hugging Australia runnning a dedicated automotive small scale foundry is almost impossible unless they have been there for at least 50 years.
This is all Chinese www. racingpartsmaximum.com and the rods look strikingly similar/same lol
