Default Stock rods needed for testing

I have been talking to an aftermarket rod manufacturer that is interested in developing a product for us, AND will take a look at the forces needed to bend the stock rods. We'll get a good idea this way (and comparing this test to other/aftermarket rods) how much torque we're safe for as far as the rods go.

Problem is I don't have enough whole rods for this.

So, I need some complete, unbent rods from people that have upgraded or blew up other cylinders. It is very important that the rods are not bent and that the caps and bolts are included

Please let me know if you have any you can send my way, I am looking for a couple.

The rods will be bent during the testing and will no longer be usable if that wasn't obvious.

Thanks!

Lex, a local guy here just blew recently i guess. One rod is broken, but the other's may be intact. Not sure if you'd want them, cause they are probably already structurally compromised, but i'll see if i can get them anyway. Maybe your company could do a material analysis on the compound or something.

Would be great to have. Actually, if you can also get bearings and pistons from the motor would be nice to see what they look like. PM me with any more info about the blowup if you have it/can get it. The more info the better.

im sure they will put them through neumerous compression and torsion tests to basically test their static breaking point. the reason he probs needs alot of rods is because if youu test a sample of say 12 diff rods and they all break at x+/- 20ftlbs of torque, you have alot more realistic results then if you test 3 rods and they all break at x +-40ftlbs of torque.

lol yea, sounds similar to the shit im learning in statistics. sample mean and standard deviation.

-how do they do the testing tho, they put the rods in a engine? or just pull on it with a special machine

actually they hire two gorillas (read gorillas need moneys too you know) and they pull on the rod from each end. then they test how strong the gorilla can pull on a scale and apply x logic to the rod.


lol they pull on it with a machine. we have all these machine at my school but i dont really have the access to use them cause they are more for acedemic purposes.

I can also do tests on rod or pistons and i could pull a rod apart if someone wanted, also test metal hardness's etc
Tensile test a rod anyone?

i think the term is called young modulus where they search how much stress can the rod handle until it strains

OK, looks like I have all the rods I need for now. If I need more, will let you guys know.

We will see what these guys can do. I am very interested in what they find because they have terms of comparison with other stock rods and aftermarket ones. Without terms of comparison it's harder to tell what you're looking at even if a machine spits out some numbers.

bf360, if you can do some stress,strain,hardness tests on the rods that would be great. Let me know what you need.

yes i can do all three, just need the actual parts either rods or pistons and i can do the tests
Great, we need a few more rods guys. Get in touch with bf360 and send him a few.

bf360, if you have issues locating some rods let me know, I can send you a couple but I'd rather avoid the to and fro shipping and have someone send you some directly.

seeing as pistons and cranks tend to not be issues for these motors, are they planning on creating a rod that will be compatible with the factory pistons and crank?

i think overall this is something awesome to have done so we actually know what kinda punishment these rods can take but we also need to understand that rod failure due to sheer power is not whats causing motors to blow. this is something that we really need to push forward on as well. keep up the good work as well alex and billy.

I live close to the border. I have stuff shipped to WA and drive over to pick stuff up. It's a bit of a hassle because I can only do this at certain times etc.

I am pretty sure i cant do tension tests of the rods, i do not think the tester has enough power to pull them apart i can do pretty much anything else

well considering the rods never really have any tensile forces acting on them (save for pulling the weight of the piston down) i think this is ok.

The point of the tension test is to determine the strength of the rod not necessarily only how it reacts to tension
