Hey my Chevy has Ford Rods !!!!!!

[Dave Williams]

-> Short rods tend to yank the air column to get it moving. Long rods
-> tend to suck gradually and are generally a crutch for bad intake
-> ports.

 Well, almost all intake ports are bad anyway...


-> 302 Fo^&*%(^&%rds run good (short rods) because of the
-> combination of parts.

 Same rod ratio as a 350 Chevy.  Close enough for government work,
anyway.


->  426 Hemis (all Chry) have lon rods and run good
-> because of good heads. most smaller motors and "work" motors

 Pontiac, Olds, Buick, big block Fords, 351M/400 Fords, 240 Sixes...
lots of long rod engines out there, but not many that are messed with by
the hot rodders.
