You keep it clean and do good work nothing wrong with PAI. Thing is you can see/feel cheap parts in your hands. They make micrometers and plastigauge for a reason. You do half ### work you get a half ### job. But hey it's easier to say bad parts lmmfao.
kranky1 and Kw Owners Club Thank this. -
Guess I will add to this thread, thinking of going the IPD route on a 400 HP 7FB, was told by a friend to check out head made by APC basically OEM spec from what I’m reading haven’t called them yet to see if they offer a 3406B head as there website just states 3400 series. Any solid advice on any of this? If I went cat parts I’d have to peice it all together it seems. How about reusing Connecting rods? Anyone go this route can give some real advice and opinions? Thanks in advance

As far as reusing the rods you need to inspect them really well on the crank end. Usually they are fine to reuse though I put new rod bolts in every time.PSM379 Thanks this. -
