[Fot] 7" PAUTER RODS?

[Joe Alexander <n197tr4@cs.com>]

 Anyone have any experience with 7.00" RODS?

This is an inquiry from some I apparently met in Portland, OR

He refers to a similar kit from Cambridge.

TIA.

By the way, do you have any experience building up a long rod 4 pot.  I've
been talking with Pauter and they can make up a set of 7" rods and Wiseco
pistons for the 87 mm sleeves.  This is similar to the setup that Cambridge
Motorsports sells using Carrilo rods and JE pistons.  I can't seem to find any
specs in the service manual on the stock piston compression height ( I think
it's 2") or ring landing locations to see if the wrist pin on the long rod
will intersect the oil scraper ring groove.  This is not a stroker kit, but
Cambridge advertises that longer conrods reduce piston speed and contact area.
What do you think?
