I made 160rwhp

I use my own rods - i only have a couple of sets left

If you're sticking to a low rev-limit like robo did (7200rpm), then stock 7A rods are fine. That said, by the time he bought new rod bolts and resized the rods he was halfway to the cost of forged rods. All budget dependant i guess

I used stock rods in mine with a 7500rpm limit goes fine but isn't daily driven. I also brought new rod bolts, didn't resize the rods.

is it true you use a ke70 throttle cable and a 4 ac fly wheel?or can i use the flywheel from my bigport currently in car?car is a 86

[dying3k]

nah you cant use 4a flywheel as they are 8 bolt where 7a is 6 bolt

[s13 james]

so ide need the 4afe flywheel?or is there something else everyone uses

[Delazy]

4ac is actually a 6 bolt flywheel...

[s13 james]

so i should grab a 4 ac flywheel,or is there a beter option to go with?can the 4 ac be machined?

While this thread is seeing some action. Can I used a bigport 4age clutch on the 7afe flywheel? My 4age clutch is almost new and dont want it to goto waste

Depends on your clutch size.

If you were running a smallport flywheel/clutch (212mm), then it will bolt straight up to a 7AFE flywheel.

If you were running a bigport AE82/AE86 flywheel/clutch (200mm), then you need a 4AC flywheel.
