AMS Oliver 150mm Rods for 2.0/2.3/2.4
I am selling a used set of AMS Spec 150mm Oliver rods. These came out of an AMS 2.3, but can be used for a standard rod 2.0 or 2.4 also. I bought these from another member and was going to use them in my 2.3 build. Unfortunately, they will not work with my Manley Billet Crankshaft due to the wider 6-bolt bearing used in these rods. They work perfectly fine with an OEM 4G63 or 4G64 crank. I was told these have around 5K-10K miles on them and they look new. They still have the factory machining marks. These rods were accepted by MAP for my build. *I am not saying that these rods are guaranteed by MAP* I do however, have the blueprint measurements from MAP when they checked them for my build. Oliver rods are supposed to be extremely strong and lighter than the Manley rods. They were all exactly 548 grams on my scale. (I only have weights to check calibration up to 50 grams, but they were all exactly 548) I'm asking less than what I paid, $400 shipped which includes the paypal fee. *PRICE REDUCED*
Make a reasonable offer. I am currently looking for Spoolinup or Sparktech COP for an Evo 9, slim radiator, performance brakes/rotors, and OEM BBS or Evo IX Enkie wheels. If you have any of these parts, I may end up paying you the difference.

Proof as requested, that these rods have been seen by a 3rd party. I am in no way implying that MAP is guaranteeing these rods! They were willing to use them in my build.

I'm using the billet 100mm. The 6-bolt bearing wouldn't clear the radius of the crank bearing journal. It's possible that it could have been chamfered, but MAP strongly suggested that I use the stroker rods designed for the crank.

I checked them today at work on a scale that was calibrated in December 2011. It's an old one but will most likely be more accurate than mine. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any weights around to verify it's accuracy.

Make a reasonable offer. I am currently looking for a Tial BOV (black or silver), Grimmspeed Boost controller, Spoolinup or Sparktech COP for an Evo 9, slim radiator, and performance brakes/rotors. If you have any of these parts, I may end up paying you the difference.
