Now the manufacturing process of the oem rods makes perfect sense. I've been killing myself wondering how they could get away with such asymmetry.

Video on FB of the assembly finishing up. Had a small setback.
Noticed one of the rings was chipped. Needed to have another set shipped in overnight for racewars.

May have missed it.
Did you use any performance coatings: i.e. anti-friction, oil shedding, combustion chamber-piston top thermal barriers?
Thanks for leading the NA charge!

Piston skirts are anti friction coated,
Ringlands and tops also have a hardener coating on them

I stepped away from anything to do with building cars, bought myself a 2014 Daytona 675R. I remembered this thread, not disappointed at all. My wallet is fat, my body is willing...but the mind is not.

I cant wait to see the final product
