  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I replied to you by pm, I have an NOS set with pistons on them for 100 plus the ride.

    Just took some to the yard but think I have other stk that need reconned, will do 50 plus shipping for them. Odds are they will have pistons on them too

    NOS is new old stock. These rods have never been run, the came from a factory short block that had been dipped in cosmoline, wrapped in plastic, and set on a pallet till I pulled it apart just last year. The block is the base for my new engine build. I would personally have no worries dropping these right into a base build motor right how they are

    The other rods were taken from a previously run motor they may or may not needo to be reconditioned, I would highly recommend it seeing I have no way to know how many miles are on them.

    100 plus the ride.....means 100 for the complete set of 8 rods, the pistons on the rods + shipping

    Will call you as you asked

    Hi Ben,I will take those,NOS rods and pistons if Yusef does not take them.It would be better to ship just the rods,but I know it cost money to have them separated. Bruno.
