Just pulled apart a 5.9 or a 360 whatever.connecting rod turned black from no oil.My question is what happens to the rod when it turns black from the heat? its trash? metal brittle? metal fatigue?



If ya need some stock 360 rods, I have a set from a 79 with lower mileage. Went with floating wrist pins and going aftermarket rods. You can have these if you want. They're just taking up space
