    Emailed SPM and I'll post up as soon as I hear back... I was polite as I figured that'll be the best way to get a positive response...

    Good job I didn't write it last night with flesh missing from my hands after my short-shift installation... and the aero wiper installation doubt I'd have been quite so diplomatic.

      Thing is where to find it here without paying freaking money (Grease and P&P)for this small amount!

                    Just did a quick weigh on the scales out of interest, one advantage to working in a building full of labs

                    5 rods were as follows, each was wiped down to remove the oil and weighed twice to be sure i was accurate. I double checked the two 515's incase i was wrong but there defiantly 3 grams more than the other three.

                    515.92
                    515.62
                    512.56
                    512.08
                    512.08

                    Rod bolts are 26.63 grams each, only measured three of them and they were the same

                    Mark.

                        @Mark,
                        In all the years of building engines and having them balanced I never found a set of conrods that were identical in weight, no matter if they were Pawter, Carillo or Arrow.

                        Have you weighed the big end and small end? I bet there is differences in that.
