Thought I registered this but apparently not.  Came out of a red RS/SS in the Post Falls Idaho area about 25 years ago.  Standard bore.  Cast date C-11-8

Restoration / Re: connecting rod reconditioning

thanks rszmjt  I will take your advice.  Its funny  I've owned half a dozen 67's and still see posts debating medium journal vs small journal and dimple or not dimple rods in SS350's.  I do feel I know my 67s and would never chime in on a conversation I'm not 100% confident that  I know the answer to.  It waters down the credibility of the advice when a person is criticized for a typo or how he words his post.   Some birds chirp just to hear themselves.  Maybe a self confidence issue   Sorry in advance to those I've offended

these rods are from a 67 SS350 engine with a dimple up by the piston pin.  11/16 bolts   They were reconditioned and I'm wondering  if it is possible to take too much material off while reconning them.  I could easily use any 350 rod but with my SS350 engine but I have a thing about originality.  Maybe somebody could tell me if a rod can be reconditioned more than once.  My instints tell me if too much material is taken off with a loose fit that I could spin a bearing more easily.

Hi I have a shot at a set of 67 SS350 dimple rods at a decent price.  They are reconditioned and my question is if rods can be over-reconditioned?  Is my best course of action to take them to a shop have them measured and magnefluxed then make my decision?  I don't want to have a bunch of money in a set of rods I can't end up using.  Thanks.

Adam 12 has many California Camaros, muscle cars, and cars of the times in early 70's   Can even get the sound and some in racing situations.

http://spokane.craigslist.org/pts/4165135989.html   You have to be kidding me,  A bare 68 SS350 MS block for 2500.   Can't see the  vin# but looks ground off or something    Might be worth checking out and  pretend interested for poops and giggles

I just purchased this from a guy who thought he had a 327 with a steel crank...It's assembly is two weeks after my RS assembly.  Would like to find original car or somebody who could use it or trade for one a little earlier.   Standard bore and crank
