rsport sells them for 500 bucks. You'll have to take them to a machinest and get the pin bore finished machined. You should have the rotating assy. balanced as well. seriously.. ;)

Curiosity makes me ask...what were the excuses to you?

A shop apprentice dropped one of my rods at the machine shop... :huh:

The head was sent to the machine shop first for a quick valve grind. 3 weeks later, it still isn't done. You need the head to pull the engine, so the engine is still in the car even though the whole rotating assembly should have been at the machine shop last Tuesday for balancing.

Who knows how long it will take to balance; I'm not even to that point yet.

If you can't afford $500 for the rods plus another $200 for balancing, then forget about it. You won't find a cheaper price on them than that.

How would you do it? You need to be able to attach the hoist to something and the usual lifting points are on the head, not the block.
