Over the past few weeks Dad has kept himself busy digging through his stash of boxes and refurbishing various bits, he's worked his way through the generators & later starters and is currently building bacon slicer assemblies.
One of the things that came to light was a set of 1.5/16 Sports rods. We were always under the impression that sports rods were 1.5" ??
These are a matched set and come from engine 107967, unlikely that after market rods would have been stamped with the engine number. They are numbered 1;2;3;4 but also have 2 other numbers which we are not sure of ??
We're currently running standard remetalled rods at 6000 rpm in the supercharged special, we presume that these would be a better option, after crack testing & polishing obviously
