[Fot] Chinese H-beam TR rods

[MadMarx]

I heard nothing bad about them.
A few people do use them and no failure 'till today.
In a TR6 they took 8200rpm and do still last.

Cheers
Chris

Andrew (or is it Ed? -- hard to tell...),
Thanks for letting me go first. :-)

My interest in them is for a potential future engine build.  My current
engine
has Carrillos, thanks to the previous owner.
