hey guys

just wondering if stock 100k mile LT1 rods are worth reconditioning and reusing for a budget 355 rebuild?

what about stock 100k mile crank?

estimating approximately 6500 rpm shifts (maybe a little less) on a new setup with AI heads and AI custom cam....


thanks!

 

I pulled mine out at 80k and they have virtually no wear at all on the entire rorating assembly, But its all in a box in my garage now.

 

how much you want for your old crank and rods?

looking for a cheap rebuild here

 

100bucks + shipping or pickup. Rods still have pistons on them but i assume you wont want those.

 

stock crank is fine but id reccomend new rods. get studs for the main caps

 

Id actually tend to agree with him unless you are on a very tight budget some eagle SIR rids are pretty cheap, but you might get away with a rod bolt upgrade, 80 bucks if you want the crank, that is most of the cost since it was the only part I would re-use, but your shipping will be alot less, i gotta go to work, Ill be on tomarrow. bye...
