Hey RoryPauter rods and 75mm Ross pistons here.
No problems at all, no notching.
Slight piston slap in the morning, but fine at normal operating temp.
Just dont let the car idle for to long when its really cold (engine temp wise)
why not let the car idle for long when its cold? it best to warm it up on the move?
Toyota head bolts aren't that cheap
Hey Rory
any issue with running 1mm oversized pistons? what boost are you running? as that would worry me about cracking blocks at high boost.
And sounds good about the piston slap as you will always get some.
