TVR 500 engine configuration is stupid: long stroke, short rod, tall piston..."AND f**k ALL SKIRT BELOW GUDGEON PIN NO WONDER THESE STOCK CAST MODDED PISTONS RATTLE" [/quote] ETA

I am having SBC 6 inch rods machined to TVR500 big end width. These rods have bushed small end and will be used together with Real Steel stroker pistons. They are forged Icon brand pistons.

I'll let you know if the machining works.

Did you ever get this done?.. and does it work OK if you did??

Rods are still at the shop. I told the guys not to hurry and they have done exactly that. I will report when I get the rods back.

Watching this closely as i broke a piston in my 500 griff motor and wanna go down the forged route.
