[Wanted] Quick question

[Guest]

Hiya, I just wanted to know if forged t16 conrods will fit into my o series? I only ask as these are off the shelf as where my o series ones will have to be commissioned and custom made etc which I was prepared
To do anyway but would be nice to have a cheaper option lol

They are longer than the O series rods, so it depends on what pistons you are using.

When you're going for 2,000,000bhp there are no cheap options!

It was for another project I had in mind lol my turbo 70 is getting the proper treatment from wossner rods and pistons with a cosworth made billet crank.. Almost comes to £7k for just that lot as it's custom aha... Empty my piggy bank on this one lol

not custom for rover turbo, not sure for O series turbo might have to get them custom

Oh right okay mate. Yeah will have to have them made I would imagine as I don't think anyone makes forged things for the o series

I have Low compression Forged JE pistons 7:1 in my O-Series engine.

Yeah... Arnt these made for the m series? As they have valve cut outs don't they?

[countrydude]

Je would have made pistons for the o series back in the day. They possibly still have the spec if you ask them

What Model Is It !!

I have had my Austin Maestro for just over 12 months, It had been stored for over 20 years, and only 14.00 miles on the clock, bodywork almost perfect, no rust, We replaced roof lining, ( easier than I though!!) I need some to tell me what model it is. Very basic dash, not even a Cigarette Lighter, 1275,cc.
Moonraker Blue, Black Bumpers, ,No Head Rests, Manual Windows, Is that enough for someone to help me, Regards Botley Boy
