I took some pics to share. Here is what the raptor Carillo Rod looks like. Slowly getting the turbo raptor together again[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Vilnirk- Do you have any idea is the carrallo rod started life as a Honda civic or toyota product?? Can you list the specs for the rod?? I am just curios if it can be made out of something else like a 100 dollar part. I can't believe that carola makes raptor only. Where did you get the rod?? Thanks

 

if you are scared to run the rod i will volunteer to test it

 

Hahaha charles, i bet you would.

14mins here are the specs as stated on the card that came with the rod.

P.E. Bore: 0.8672

B.E. Bore: 1.7722

P.E. Thks: 0.866

B.E. Thks: 0.864



weights

total: 444

rotating: 299

reciprocating 145




I'm guesing that these are in grams???


o yea, btw if you buy this rod keep in mind you only get a rod. No pin, no bearings, no shims. nada.

sam coe performance $179.00 bones plus shipping.

 

Does the lower end use a bushing then? 14mins, doesn't the import engines still use a rod cap (two piece rod)? 145 gram rod, pretty light compared to the 800g Oliver pieces in my ford.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Good size pins though. The big end is about the size of the mains in a NASCAR engine if any cares. What length is the rod? JE/SRP makes a few atv pieces and will make ANY custom piston you want (I asked). You can have them make a high pin height so you can have a long rod stroker.

$179 isn't bad if you consider the set of eight for my truck was about $2000.
