I tried to get my friend to pop for a set of aftermarket rods for a 440 Chrysler build... no dice.

He gave me a bunch of LY rods, and some ARP bolts.

Rods magged fine; bolts went in and everything re-sized nicely.

But, I want to bush the big ends down for .990" pins.

IIRC, Summit had a bushing for this (made by Manley?); I haven't been able to find it again.

Anybody have suggestions?

TIA!

Seduce the attractive, and charm the rest. ****** 489 C.I.D., roller cam, aftermarket heads, tunnel ram, stock '54 Dodge rear axle assembly: which of these doesn't belong?

And I thought the Honda rod journal was small.

I think Diamond has some bushings for the pin end.
