  • The rods normally get numbered so the caps match. Doesn't matter when they go. A machinist will move them around to find the best bearing clearance. The main caps are numbered at the factory.
    Our rod caps MUST go back on the same rod cause the are fractured so no two breaks will match

    • I hope everything goes well for you mike with the discussing with Paul.

      I know a lot of builders will only stand buy there work if everything is brand new fresh. I would just think that Paul will stand but his work.

      Let us know how it goes!

        • Give these guys a call, they are in Jenison and do really good work....and more importantly, they stand behind their work...I don't know if they have LS platform experience though....give them a call and ask them.

                          • Ahhh I'm drawing a blank that's for sure. I can't think of it ATM. But the shop is accu-pro racing engines.
