New background material.

To the thread starter, I am sorry that you make so much money and have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe, just maybe, go talk to you friends who wont make as much fun of you as we are and they might help you. To all of us, you are nothing but a troll who is coming on the internet to brag about money that probably isnt there. If the money is/was there, then either take our advice and send it to AMS, or just shut up. All of your posts are completely stupid and have no meaning to them. If you want to take your car to Japan to have the work done, then get on a Japanese website and have had it.

/thread.

100% agree, which is how and why this thread went to hell.

Everyone REPEATEDLY told you what to do to obtain your goal. You made it painfully obvious that you have NO idea what the hell you're doing (from your first post). That's fine...that's what this site is here for. So I'm not knocking you there. The biggest issue after was not listening to people. If you don't know what's up, ask for guidance/help, then basically tell the people trying to help you "Stuff it"...this is what happens.

Either review the first 2 pages and listen, or take it elsewhere. There's nothing left to discuss at this point. Except how to get ahold of that 31 gear Twin Turbo PT Cruiser transmission! hawt.

While they may be light...they move...and they bend...and eventually snap. But it sounds like you did the research so maybe you know something I don't. I sure hope so for your motor's sake.
Technology has changed. Have you seen the latest AMS thread with pictures of their race car? That engine is the same as mine. BTW, the rods are made by Groden to AMS spec.

I think I MAY have started this madness. I'm either in A LOT of trouble, or I'm dead wrong, and YOU, yeah, YOU are in trouble.

BTW, guys...I didn't want to reveal who I actually was...but this is me...and my car. Good luck having one of you morons with your stupid AMS turbo kits, and APEX and JDM parts (BIG F-ING DEAL) coming after me. That's right...because ya'll ain't ready for my whip...watch...if you dare. And when you realize my car is the shiz-nitto-snip-snap-sack...send me money....here I am boys...with the deadliest 4-door EVER put in production....


Deadliest 4-Door EVER!


And now you know....

Technology has, aluminum hasn't. Are they still aluminum? I'm not trying to naye-say. But myself and my machine shop almost NEVER use aluminum rods. Too many failures. I hope yours work fine, i never want to see some one lose a motor. EVER. Just curious, hopefully i didn't offend you!

I was under the impression that aluminum rods were only for extreme race conditions where the user knew he or she was going to tear the engine down after every other run/outing, etc. I also thought John Shepherd uses aluminum Groden rods in his record setting Talon.

I'm sure he does. But he tears that thing down and replaces them over and over.

I'm no expert in this area. I left it up to AMS and they claim that these new aluminum rods work well for my application. They're actually starting to use them more often and they've been installed in several cars now. You didn't offend me and I'll say it again; I'm no expert in this area. However, I trust AMS 100% and have the utmost of confidence in them. Keep in mind that his is not a daily driver. I'll use it on the road occasionally but not often. Also, keep in mind that I have a dog box and sequential shifter in this car. Streetable is not my primary goal.

P.S. I've lost four motors already, it's part of the game IMO.

His last motor lasted an entire season.

Ask AMS for their opinion on the new aluminum rods.

One other comment: Years ago people were afraid to use aluminum blocks even though it's the norm today. Aluminum hasn't changed but manufacturing technologies have.
