[Fot] Steel Connecting Rods for a TR6

[Chuck Arnold and/or Kathleen Kelley]

Both Charly Mitchell and myself are using these in at least one of our race
engines.  I have them in the current engine and all seems fine.  Have
Pauters in the one I am having rebuilt at the moment.  The ones referenced
here do have a minor issue in the 6 and that is they drag just a little on
the bottom of the cylinder skirts.  Had to relieve each side a little bit.

They were procured out of England, but I do not know if they are
manufactured there.
