- My engine is down for repairs from a blowup. I'd sure like to replace the crank with a Moldex. Their leadtime is ten weeks, which would be after the season is over. Does anyone know a source for one

- Spending for the Moldex then not fitting Carillo or similar rods is poor economy in my view. -- Original Message -- From: "Richard Taylor" <tarch@bellsouth.net> To: "'BOB KRAMER'" <rkramer3@austin.rr

- The economic pain probably happens less often if you build the best engine you can afford, whatever that means (though you tend to flog a better engine a lot harder). When I look at a stock Triumph r

- Just a couple of comments from the lesser of the technos: Your break occured where most of them break. It might have been cracked for a very long time. Given the useage of your engine over 21 race we

- I too am having a hard time dealing with the economic pain of Moldex crank and Carillo rods for something around $3000. I'm told that Triumph rods are unusual (and therefore expensive) because they h

- Actually it would make a lot of sense. We might have a better chance of getting good bearings and they might up the horsepower by a fair amount. Bearings that are wider than they need to be are a nee
