I have a 3.9 with ARP main, head and rod studs/bolts which I want to use with a turbo or supercharger mounted on it. I can suss out the sizing/fueling/ignition stuff as I've quite successfully built my Rover P6 with a turbo'd M16 four cylinder engine running twin blow through SU's, running about 180bhp at 7psi so I'm quite confident in my abilities there.
Question is, what can the standard Rover rods and pistons handle before they start to fail, I've searched but not really found anything conclusive?
Is there any difference in strength/reliability between the 3.5/3.9 pistons and rods against 4.0/4.6 pistons and rods? I know a crossbolt block would be more beneficial to what I want to do, but I've got a 3.9 and may as well blow that up first
