This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

BBB connecting rods, Full set

Discussion in 'Parts for sale' started by tjcole, Apr 4, 2009.

    A set of Big Block Buick connecting rods for sale.
    These are the same rods for all big blocks, 400, 430 or 455 as far as I know.
    These came off of a '68 430 engine. The stamped part number is the same as the '70 455 rods I sold.

    They still have the stock pistons attached. But the pistons are unusable, but the rods look great.
    They have never been machined, they are virgin rods.
    $25 for the set plus shipping, OBO

    Thank you,

    theres the rub. I checked with my local machine shop and they want something like $40 to remove the pistons.
    I mean if you want to add that to the bill I can do it. But I would loose money if I did it.
    You may have a cheaper machine shop in your area if you want me to ship them intact to your place?

    Let me know what you want to do.

    Cheers,

    Paypal is good.
    I'll pack them up and get you a quote ASAP.
    Since the pistons are not good, I will pack them as tight as possible while protecting the rods.

    Thank you,

    No problem,

    Thank you just the same.


    Still for sale. I just don't need these and rather have them in someones hands that can use them.
    So how about $10 for the set plus shipping.
