[QUOTE="Hartwig, post: 1559866, member: 31929"] Rod bushing vid follows tomorrow. It was an odyssey until I got the other pistons (0.030" over, 0.010" destroked) for the engine with the EGR cooler damage. The customs made problems although everything was described perfectly and all papers were filled out correctly. Finally, after hours of phone calls and emails, the parts arrived, but the jackass who packed the shipment at my forwarder in NH can't read. I had specifically noted ALL items to be left protected in the original packaging box and shipped that way. But the guy has unpacked everything and put everything loose in a package which was sent to me in Germany. How the packages are handled by these "professionals", we all know. In short version: the pistons have damage on the edges. I do not know yet if I can use them. [ATTACH=full]186316[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]186317[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]186318[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]186319[/ATTACH] The connecting rods I bought from a major Ford parts dealer 7 of them are in good condition, one looks like it was worked on by a drunk Mexican on the sanding band. The edges on the piston pin bushing are razor sharp on the one connecting rod. [ATTACH=full]186320[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]186321[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]186322[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]186323[/ATTACH] I weighed them all, the weights are reasonably equal.
