Bingo!!! Im taking the engine to the shop that built the engine. Those Pauter rods look amazing!!! more than likely I'll settle for turbo tuff I beams, and..... A piston. :)
I appreciate all the responses, and im still not quite sure which piston to go with. $800 for rods, and...
I still havnt pulled the engine/trans out yet. The hole in the back of the block is cyl #2, and something blew out of the oil pan. I will definitely know more, once the machine shop ytears it down...And 500+whp felt pretty good, just not sure what let loose. Has anybody heard anything about the...

Hrrmm…. I appreciate all the input. I'll be waiting another 2 weeks, and placing a couple orders... looks like Manley takes the cake. Right!! they've been around forever, and if they'll swap out a defective piston, no questions asked... that's what I wanted to hear. I still believe once the shop...

ended up installing a thermostat housing, with an OEM o-ring, no coolant leaks. The dinging I performed to the water pipe was like 1/32" too deep. Turbo (_Just_) cleared. wrapped errythang up, and started the engine... let it warm-up.. nothing leaking. I am not running coolant to my turbo, so I...
Sorry if theirs already a handful of _started_ but never (resolved) threads having to do with this conversation, but here goes...I'm using an FP Manifold, and attempting to install a brand new, "Old School" FD Red turbo. Old periphs came off pretty easy. I was gently tapping in the right spot...
I did a boost leak test on my Eclipse for the first time, and here, when I put it together I used a straight piece of hose to connect the booster to the intake, not even thinking it will make the booster go under pressure. Plus, I was leaking mad pressure right at the booster, while testing...
Just out of curiosity.. i remember paging through Jegs, Summit, PAW, you name it, all the performance engine reading, and just about every camshaft had its lift/duration advertised, and usually some sort of _powerband_ listed.Would anyone have a generic powerband for stage 2, BC 272 cams??? or...
