I've got a good set of floating pin Turbo 2 rods and 4 standard bore 2.5 Turbo pistons here. I was told the pistons have 500 miles on them. $80 plus shipping for everything. Email me at timk225@hotmail.com

I didn't see the post on FMML when i did a search. I might go with the Eagles afterall (found em for $320)... just want to make sure they would fit a 2.2 common block w/forged crank, forged pistons. I want the 2.4L neon ones right?

Eagle rods suck in a nutshell for our applications.

Why? What's wrong with them? I have heard of quite a few people with 2.4 that like them.

Poor machining, poor materials, won't hold a round end, have to be resized right out of the box.

You buy cheap rods from China you get what you pay for.

how much about do the aluminum rods go for? by the time i get home from work, it's way to late to catch any businesses open. big time difference. also where can i get any forged 2.5 pistons, possibly 20 or 30 over bore. thanks.
