They are not without bushings and not 'just aluminium rockers to shaft' as you stated. What gave you that idea?



I already have the rods, they were a test set from R&R through Jake. Here coupled to a set of 77,50m pistons from the 1200T project (testfit for the 20mm pins):

Good morning Walter, sorry I mis read pauters web site, only the rockers using needle bearings, will not have any bushing just hardened aluminum.

Those rods look plenty strong enough.
