Originally posted by formula31 Everything Ive ever seen in aftermarket rods required them to be worked on anyway, especially Eagle. If I cant get the bolts out and new in without reworking them, Ill just leave them alone. Thanks for all the info. $300 to recon them is just too much for what I need. Bearings looked perfect.
As with any high perf engine...........never assume anything is perfect. If you have the tools, it just takes a bit of time to check. Heck I know of people even on this board who bought new rotating assemblies that would barely rotate when put together. Now that's a disappointment !
Looks like you're in Ohio ? Maybe someone on this board can recommend a shop ?
