Oil ways into ARP rods

[Billman]

The most recent engine i saw without riffle drilled rods that made over 100000km was A80Avant and the piston pins looked just fine. The engine run with Holset HX40 for a bit and then with GT3076R so it was well above stock rating.

However I would go for them in a high revving track car just for the extra bit since the oil pressure would never be an issue due to the high revs.

Pay your money take your choice
All high end rods have them
Budget ones don't

Also.....

Audi Sport Rods had them, good enough for them good enough for me.

Rods costing 200 Euros/GBP or USD more than budget ones are far from high end.

here some high end without riffle drill (riffle drill provides cooling/lubrication but reduces strength-everything is relative)

Who has £200 rods? Like to see you buy pauters for that price

he said more than budget i.e. scat price + £200

[Jamo]

Lost I'm talking pauter arrow etc not scat

[Billman]

Me too, stating that Pauter/arrow and also Carillo are far from high end! Check my previous post I have added some pictures.

Lol pauters aren't high end!
I'm done here leave it to the Holset crew

[Billman]

Lol pauters aren't high end!

Not only aren't but also far from!

This is from the carillo site:

FPO (force feed oiling)
Force Feed Oiling, or Forced Pin Oiling (FPO), in actuality does not offer forced or pressurized oiling. However, by installing a slot behind the bearing and a hole through the center of the rod we have established a reservoir that supplies oil underneath the wrist pin when the connecting rod is pulling mass down the cylinder. It certainly contributes to the longevity; however it is only effectual on one of the four strokes of the engine cycle.

it isn't worth arguing vaslis you won't win. Its what the forum is getting like lately and why so many people don't bother replying....

[Billman]

Just because some people are trying to prove that what they are doing is the best and there is nothing else than that and that a rod costing 150 Euros/piece must be taken for high end.

well as long as the OP found out what he needed to know or got pointed in the right direction thats fine.
Its a bit like being on the set of Hollyoaks on here sometimes!
