I've been talking to someone recently and can aqquire sets of h section conrods for a good price, if there's any interest I can afford 5 sets or so in about a week if a sale on my amp goes through, the rods in question are Chinese made but are sold by one of the major company's here as there own brand rod, the wouldn't say which company tho. Anyways would anyone be interested in a set of h sections minus the bolts for around 220 all in plus delivery a set? Just gauging interest as I don't wanna buy a load and be stuck with 4 extra sets. If not I'll just have to get 2 sets (minimum order)

Rick i think this is a difficult one, one thing china is good at is counterfeited goods, if these turned out to be made by a company that supplies one or two of the engine builders that stamp there names on them i would be interested, however you are taking a chance on them being very substandard and rods and bolts are a critical part!

speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

I'm not having this as a debate mate that's for the other topic. Merely seeing who's interested... And if they are what I think they are then it's not much dearer than lightening your standard rods... Well a little bit but... I'll get all the info and report back.
