1.5mm longer than the DOHC rods...

I don't honestly know(just in a smarta** mood), but i can check if no one else here knows.
I have a set of rods from a K4 laying around I can measure if need be.

Bob,

Did you check Axl's site? www.SatanicMechanic.com/.de?. I think he has that info listed.

I'm thinking bore-centers is the most useful measurement.  This is for CR calculations involving stroke and compression distances, so I think he needs bore-centers.

Sorry about not posting the measurments yet... I keep forgetting the rod at home....

12+ hour days make it hard to rember the little things at times...
I am going home for lunch (I will bring the rod to work), and will measure it after work tonight.
I will post the measurments about 4 or 5 in the morning.

it's nice to get off work early for a change...

The mill I was going to use to dial in the bores and give you a exact bore to bore measurement is down...So using some digi calipers, I come up with 4.566 center to center.
In Metric thats 115.976 mm
I'm guessing 116mm is stock.
I did re-measure, and the second time I came up with 4.567.(116.002mm)

While i'm at it.... stock DOHC cb750 connecting rod center to center length I measure is 4.507(114.478mm).
touching lightly I come up with 4.508 (114.503mm)

Hope this helps.

Well I brought them to work today, and checked 2 rods, and came up with 4.5675 and 4.5665.
Possibly the center to center difference is due to the miles on the motor these are from?

Big Jay, you guys there make rods right? I'm assuming thats why have the spec's?

My figure came right off of a Carrillo spec sheet that comes with the rods.
