I've got a used set of H beam rods and they're good to go. They've been gaged and you can still see the hone marks in the bushings. 7/16 ARP bolts.
Sold the motor they were going in. PM me if interested.

The rods are made by someone else. Mahle makes pistons only.

They're Lunati sportsman rods. That my sound good but they were forged in China just like the Eagle and Scat rods. I got that info from Lunati. They're good but not the best. I'll bet they're the same as the ones that come w/ Mahle pistons.
