Hi all
Im going to be ordering my new JEs and Eagle rods shortly and was just wondering whether its going to make any difference getting the 1st or 2nd generation ones (ie 21mm or 22mm wrist pins). Im guessing strengthwise its comparing apples with apples. Will be going with vr4 head etc.
Any opinions on which JEs are better would be appreciated

I think it gets messy trying to find Conrods with the 22mm Gudgen Pin (2G) which has the right big end size for the 6 Bolt Crankshaft (1G)....

Direct from Wiseco, you don't need the upgraded 21mm Pins they have available unless your pushing 800Hp, so I think you will be fine with just the standard 21mm pins from Eagle :wink:
