Scat Forged Rods Bulk Buy !! - Page 5

**PGTF2T** · 2-2-08, 17:30

How much lighter are these new rods than stock rods? lighter would increase faster revs.

And here is another scat rod picture :

I have to say, I'm pretty much sold on them, shame I'm totally broke and won't see an engine for a long long time.

you don't want lighter, unless its titanium. you want it heavier with much stronger bolts. can't beat weight when you want something strong.

these have very good bolts in them and wont be much heavier. they should be good to big hp.

still going on? put me down for one of these. When do we need to come up with the money?

**shwine617** · 2-4-08, 19:45

alwaysbrokenmx6, you've been added, the buy will happen if and when we get enough people.

**M2cupcar** · 2-6-08, 11:56

ok, after the cory sales pitch

I'm in for one set. It really is silly to build an engine w/o a set at that price.

add me to the list!!!!
one set please!

**M2cupcar** · 2-6-08, 15:36

Given the popularity of this engine outside the states, you'd think there might even be some shops that would want some sets... just a thought.

good point, i am just having a hard time finding anything outside the US. I can't really find any forums or stores, and if I do they are in another language, i'll keep trying though.

**zlyricist** · 2-6-08, 16:37

there's always pauter rods at 700$

if this bulk buy doesnt go through, i think that's what im going to get. pauter said they would offer a discount price to anyone who is a legitimate dealer, if anyone around here is, idk

Anyone have the weights on the stock rods? F2 and FE?

They are only "popular" in two places :
USA/Canada (sorry for clumping)
Australia

why? only two places to get turbo models in bulk.

to the rest of the world they are transport for most and niche for some and far from popular. which is good cause it means they are cheap.

I'm keen with a bunch of conditions IE, i am broke right now... and 2.5 years away from needing them if ever. Put me down as discussed the other night Cory!

Scat is big in VW circles. I'm a big VW fan.

Sounds like a bloody good deal to me.

Fred.
