Is anyone running them? if so what make?

 

I am planning on some engine work in the new year and want to start getting the bits together.

 

I have been doing some digging, I have found Pauter rods for £750 a set (from Rosten, he no longer makes his own) & Carrillo for £900 a set.

 

This is a little more than I was hoping to pay, all the others seem to be eBay specials.

 

Any ideas/advice is appreciated.

That's what I was hoping to get, but Darkside stopped stocking them, so I contacted Rosten-Performance direct & Geir emailed me saying they only have Pauters available for ASZ at 1045 euros!

The standard ones are forged and are good for 300bhp.
