Hey who has a spare rod lying around?

what are the dimensions? big end, pin end length.....................
 
i'v got 7 but they are in the garage an it's 5 in the morning maybve later
 
Big end: 3 3/8 across; 15/16 thick;

Pin end: 7/8 thick
 
stock rod length is 6.221, with a stroke of 3.96 bore of 4.030, with a pin size of .943.

nobody makes a drop in piston, and even if you find them its not a good idea to drop in a forged piston to the oem bore, the oem pistons have a tolerance of aobut 1 thousands, a forged piston grows at a different rate then the block so you need at least 4 thousands clearance,

nobody also uses a .943 pin, you have to convert to a .927 pin,


there are a ton of options out there but you need to know how to mix and match;)
