Tom Tucker Donating Members 701 Member For: 5y 9m 13d Posted 08/07/21 11:37 AM Author Share Posted 08/07/21 11:37 AM Will take a little while. I think the shop won't install the engine for another month. Getting the engine bay painted and tidied up. Then they want to do a 1000km run in before sending. Which works well, because I need to bed that clutch in... 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/95184-bf-mk-2-unopened-stock-turbo/page/6/#findComment-1705958 Share on other sites More sharing options...

eff xr6t Member 569 Member For: 11y 6m 13d Posted 10/07/21 04:21 AM Share Posted 10/07/21 04:21 AM What made you go with the howards rods? Ive got a set in my built sohc bit worried about breaking them when I turn it up past 1100hp after a mate has broken one. You got any plans for a bigger then the g35-900 in future?

Tom Tucker Donating Members 701 Member For: 5y 9m 13d Posted 10/07/21 09:05 AM Author Share Posted 10/07/21 09:05 AM My engine builder is a fan of US made stuff, and Howards seem to have a rep for being well finished billet steel rods. Was originally going to get Carillo rods, but there was a 4 month wait on those. Looked at Nitto, but the Howards are significantly cheaper. The G35-900 will only make 600rwkw absolute max, so I'll be well within safety margins.
