I guess I'm confused.  How much worse is the stroke of a tr4. =20

In my spitfire 1500 we use stock rods and a stock crank shaft and shift poin=
t is 7200 rpm. Guys using the moldex cranks and forged rods are getting 8500=
 or so.   And these are the pauter x style.=20

Are you sure the initial failure was the rod and not something before that?
