So has anyone done the long rod upgrade to a pro 800 motor yet? Please tell us who's rod kit it is and if it was made by the actual seller or just sold by the installer.
I personally know of 3 engine builders who use and install this kind of upgrade. I have heard that one of the builders has a us manufactured rod and the others are using a china stamped rod. No I am not looking for a us to china quality argument since I know most all of us prefer the USA made products.
If you have had any long rod kit experience please advise which kit and what you are running for replacement pistons like stock, cast, or forged and what you did with the jug if you had it repaired or replaced.
I am looking for actually feed back from any one who has had any of the above mentioned upgrades done and how it has worked out to date with how many miles you have put on so far or how long ago you had it done. Also who did the work for you or indicate if you did this work yourself.
Please feel free to share you thoughts and opinions about your long rod kit. Last but not least I am not comparing any of the engine builders but this information is more about the upgrades & options and your expierence to date to evaluate the results. I would like this thread to stay away from the bickering between vendors and to see actually how many of these kits are being used to date.
