Has anyone done this? I did a search but didn't find anything under CTR, pistons, rods.

cant, it wont work. mounting is way different.

 

It willl work, you need to get the small end machined to fit between the piston.

Nothing's impossible. Just takes a little work that's all.

 

Here you go. ef-1 does it.



Machine pin hole for locks, shorten the pin, and narrow small end of rod for proper clearance.

 

Well, I'm a firm believer that anythings possible if you put you mind to it. Thanks alot for the answers. Does anyone know what the turn around time is for ef-1 if I shipped my pistons and rods to them and had them do the machining?

2 weeks. We'll also pin fit the small end of the rod too, they are usually on the tight side.

 

any machine shop that knows their **** can modify to fit ctr pistons with eagle rods.

 

I strongly suggest you send it to EF-1. I had oem pistons mated to aftermarket rods. It's very nice quality and work done on it.

EF-1

Yeah, dude. That's actually your piston in the picture.

Just trying to help people stretch their budgets.

 

so how much is the setup? eagle rods/ctr pistons/ floating wrist pins/rings?

Thanks for clearing this up...my bad I was led to believe that mounting is way different that it would probably cost more to do rather than get forged pistons that match eagle rods. I may do that on my other block then...Forged pistons and eagle rods combo can get really expensive, plus the cost of sleeving my b18 block.

Cost is $150 to machine piston OE piston and machine Eagle Rod (spiral locks included.)
