Hi all building another engine. Whilst the block and cam etc were off getting machined some genius decided to play silly buggers with me and hide a few parts. Now I've got the rest back I've managed to rummage together everything I need except for the big end cap and nuts off one connecting rod. If anyone has a spare set of connecting rods somewhere id be incredibly gratefull.

Did you find any? I recently threw some away but I may have a few more if I go through my spares and have a good look if you are still stuck. Can't promise anything though.

I missed this thread! I have a set here, still sitting in a motor that someone decided to over torque the rocker pedestal bolts and subsequently stripped the threads in the block. I drove the motor around for awhile, and ran well. No going to bother fixing this block, I have another 7 good ea81 motors here.
If you can hold on until Monday next week, I'll get the motor stripped apart then as that's my next rdo.
