Wtb forged rods

He's actually not being sarcastic....I think :P
Example (These have gotten silly cheap):
Mazda 1 6 1 8 B6 BP 323 Miata H Beam Rod Rods 5 230" | eBay
Pretty much every single one of the rods that you see that look like this from various manufacturers are identical. Anyone that says differently is either lying or doesn't know better.
As with any aftermarket internal engine part, they are generally not just plug an play unless that is specifically mentioned. They should be properly checked for clearance and balance, and if off they need to be machined. Otherwise you risk damage when running.

Indeed it does. And many others do as well. But again, if someone is building a car, isn't it worth the extra $140 to buy from a US company who supports our site and hobby and stands behind their product, besides ALSO getting high-quality hardware and QC along with it?
