Connecting rod length

[Roger]

Hi Colin, yes some ambiguity in the opening post but things usually become clear in further discussion.


Re grinding, an offset crank grinder is best, you set the throw and all pins will then have an equal throw.

I don’t particularly like the other type which follow the the worn pin and therefore don’t necessarily correct, or equalise the throw.

Hi, 
I agree with your comments regarding the offset grinder and understand that the crankshaft should not be ground incorrectly as these machines are designed to do it right.
And by the same token machining the rods is done in a jig, as has been shown on forum posts.
So how can they not be correct if done by a competent machinist?
Although they look good I am now worried about the quality of the workmanship, but as I have had the parts for a long time it is too late to return them I guess.
