Connecting rod swap question
Hello:
I'm swapping a 350 into my 86 iroc.
I bought some forged 5.7 Scat rods. I took them to a shop to put my Keith Black Silvolite pistons on them.
I got them back, but the rods' color changed on the small end as if they heated them too much. Or is this normal?
Will this be a problem? Did they weaken?
Thanks for your comments
