What kind of rods are these?

[boostingbuick]

Any help would be great. They appear to be stronger or larger than a two dot and will bolt into a stock production crank.

Any marks or lettering on them at all?

Are they modified Chevy rods?

These pics may help. No other marks that i can tell. And these are full floating .927 pin and are stock length. Had them in a 87 prod. block.

I am leaning towards what jason thinks. They look like a chevy rod.

Now are you guys saying that a chevy rod has the same length as a gn motor? But i am getting that these aren't really worth putting in a 109 block with a eagle crank.

I have seen some like that before, but the ones i saw were capscrews not thru bolt/nut style like those. I think Lentz made those rods and they were sold under the Buick Motorsports name. They look similar to the GMPP Bowtie rods for small block chevys, and Lentz also manufactured those for GM.

Thank you all. But how much power can these things handle? I want to make a solid 600 to the tires.

No problem,

That rod will take 100 hp per hole all day. Just have them magnafluxed, and upgrade the rod bolts. And of course you will have to have them re-sized if you change the bolts, not to mention to make sure they're round and not egg shaped.
