Pauter Rods

[BACARDI_DWB]

Just ordered me some forged pauter rods!! $686.00 ordered shipped to my cryotreating guy in washington. I wonder what he is going to do to my rods.. hmmm cryo maybe?

Awesome, thats who I wouldve went with too, awesome. Cant wait to see your piston choice and compression ratio choice, should be exciting. MUST TAKE PICS!

[BACARDI_DWB]

well i really can't say the exact specs right now but its going to be a custom grind piston by wiseco with a bore of 83.5mm. but i really can't say anymore than that right now until i know it can be done

Congrats, pics ASAP!

does aftermarket rods need cryotreating?

[float_6969]

EVERYTHING need cryo treating. I've heard that F1 motors are often completely assembled and then cryotreated as an entire assembled block.

awesome! might have to do that on mine. damn the expense! dont think im making enough power to warrant it though.

also, i need some visual aides. stat.

yeah everything i get done is getting cryotreated including the turbo/oilpump. i get deals like crazy on cryo

i could probably get it done for free, but its a bit sketch so i havnt tried. i dont really want to get called out walking into NASA with a handfull of car parts. something about misuse of taxpayer dollars or something. however, i would be willing to try if goaded into it by the CA community.

well if you do a piston a day then i really don't see them getting upset. and then you can say you have aerospace quality parts in your ca18

Tim, it's all coming together for me now. I knew you were weird, but now I really get it! You're an alien! Man why didn't you just tell us?
