each and every conrod would have a slightly different weight unless a set has been balanced get some and weigh them

I am in the planning stages of my 308 rebuild and was throwing around some ideas and I was hoping if anyone could give me the rod weights it would help out. I have searched the net and this forum with no luck yet.

Cheers

Brian

Hi Brian

I had a look & found a spec sheet for WB Blue motor V8 & it lists that conrod at 588 g.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0
