Just like the title says, I need to purchase a set of Oliver Billet 7.100" connecting rods. I found them at Flatlander Racing for $1195, has anyone ever dealt with them? Any board sponsors that are Oliver dealers? Thanks.

Flat Lander has like a $10 "drop ship" fee on top of S&H
By the time you add it up, it's no cheaper than Summit or Jegs.

The last time I bought new Olivers, CV Products was the cheapest I found.

you might want to call them to verify the price. also ask them if those 7.100 rods are 2nds, or blems. (yes, blems do exist) if those are first run 7.1 rods for that price you better buy them.

are you sure any of those companies actually still stock or sell Oliver rods?

No, I'm not sure. My invoice date from CV Products was 07-30-07.

6.300" x 2.100" x .927" SBC $1160.00

I'm not seeing Oliver on CVs site anymore.

Flatlanderracing.com is not available.

One more US company down the toilet?

those are probably the forged I beams, not the Billet I beams or Max series rods.
