Thread: Connecting rod question

  1. 10-04-2012 09:59 PM #1
    Rebuilding 1.8t (AWD) going with JE piston 81.5 mm and stock crank. What connecting rods will work and size? 144mm x 19 mm or 144 x 20 mm or neither? Can't find anything that's AWD specific then again I suck at finding things.

    Well assuming your JEs have 20mm pins, you'll need rods with 20mm pins
