'71 198 swap to a '76 225 - help identifying noise?

Torqued them all to 22 ft-lbs per spec.



Yes, the long rods are desirable, I do know. Any idea what a set would be worth? I was just going to sell the whole engine and let someone else dig them out. Don't have a ton of time right now.

Not a ton. They need to be reworked and new rod bolts installed for any performance application. I'd give 150 dollars for some but that'd be about it. You figure 150 plus another 150 to have them resized, another 75 for good rod bolts. A little more and you can get the Molnar and K1 rods.
