Re-size Con Rods

Anybody know of a good place to send my Arrow Con Rods for resizing. They are running a little small and I would like them a touch bigger so I could run .0020 clearance. Right now I am sitting at about .0010 on the best one and am using the thinest measured bearing out of a set of about 16 halves.


Thanks,

Gary

I don't know if they would do Rods that are not theirs, but I'll give them a call. Thank you much Mr. Hill.

Dang Jim I think Ryan and Karl like to keep you all to themselves. I thought you just ported.
I'll probably shoot them over to you.

Ryan, when you get a chance shoot me a PM with your #, I think I lost it. I had a couple questions about the PowerCommander LCD Display and multifuntion hub set up.

Thanks you all,

Gary

Gary, were basically a high end custom engine shop we are setup to do anything. The 5 axis CNC head porting machine was actually just the latest addition to the shops capabilities. Its much easier to list the things we cant do, like grind crankshafts and camshafts.

You also CAN'T make #8's like Taco Bell, but that's about the list of what you can't do.

GREAT shop, Bill & Jim are GREAT people.

Yep, spoke with Jim. No worries. I just can't figure out why Honda did not post actual bearing sizes in their manual. Very Irritating!!!

Entropy, Hope all goes very well at the Dyno on Sat!

Osti, I'll give you a call real soon, nothing important.

Vince, Were in Oakville CT. CompetitionCNC.com

Basically we build custom engines. But have been known to build :special" 5hp briggs engines for tractor pulling. Kids like to win also.

Right now I'm waiting for a CNC program to finish running thats cutting "289" with a factory looking font into the valve cover area of a set of 351w heads..... Hey its what the customer wants.
