I am putting together a 385 SBC and I am looking for a set of 6" H beam connecting rods for floating pistons. Let me know what you have. Thanks

Hi, these aren't H beams but I have a brand new set still in the box and Wiseco forged pistons .030 over available if you're interested.
Thanks
Matt

 

Thanks, But those will not work for the power that the 385 will be making.

 

I have Carrillo rods, but they are 5.700".

 

Damn, I wish they were 6" rods. I already have the pistons that require 6" rods.

 

You don't mind having the piston pin bore go through the oil rings, requiring a support ring?

 

I do not mind. These Pistons do have the support ring. I just don't want to have to change the pistons if I went with a 5.7 rod.

What were you asking for the 5.7 Rods?

 

What were you asking for the 5.7 Rods?

I bought them in 1998 and they were used no more than 2 months in a 68 Camaro with a 12.5 compression 350 on the street.
The owner could not afford to keep feeding it racing fuel just to try to impress a bunch of nobody losers and their "fast" cars.
The car had too much power and no traction, so those slow cars could actually beat it if they lined up to race.

The car was sold and I got my engine back. Took it apart and the Carrillo rods have been stored since.
They are H beam 5.700" with bushed pin bores and the WCM7 bolts. The last time I checked, the closest match was selling for $2300.
I paid $1100. back then and would like to just get that money back.

 

Ah I see. I am going to pass on those rods. Not looking to spend 1100 at the moment. But thank you sir.

 

Update, Found a nice set of NIB Eagle rods. Thanks.
