[Amc-list] 199 rods in a 4.0l was Re: Rambler six comma fast

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

What length are 196 and or 327 rods?
Maybe something there?
The 199 crank sure would keep the piston "up in the bore"!

I know we talked about this years ago on the strokers forum.
I'd search for it , but I get tired of Yahoos crap.
Everytime I get my login fixed it works for 2-3 weeks and craps out again!
Takes me hours to get it working to...
