Default H22a1 vs H22a4 rods - Differences?

Are there any tolerance/measurement differences between the h22a1 and h22a4 rods?

Eagle has 2 different rod options. The a1 and a4/type-s. Unfortunately the a4/type-s uses a 5/16" bolt opposed to the 3/8" bolt that the a1 rod uses.

Honda uses different part numbers for the rods but the bearing numbers are identicle. I just wanted to double check that the rods are in fact interchangeable. I am using a 97 crank so the mains are the same as the 92-96 (not that it matters in relation to the rods).

A good picture to show the differences not from 97+ H22A rods but even within the same years of 92-96...Honda is wierd like that...

On the left thinner rod, on the right thicker rod with oil passage, Both appear to be jdm h22a rods from 92-96 era.

97+ I believe are free floating...?

Good picture.

Everything is the same. I just cross referenced all the specs. Thanks for posting the picture up so I could see the differences from the OEM parts.

The difference on the two versions of the Eagles is .001" on the little end diameter.

Are you speaking of the wrist pin bore?

The difference from what I see is the 3/8" bolt on the a1 compared to the 5/6" on the a4 design.
