question? the tv175 had a 116 conrod opposed to the 107 rod! you can buy small casing kits without using packers to suit the rod !(mugello) so i was wondering why there are no large casing kits that are made for the 116 rod without using packers? ie bolt on and go without any modifications?

I'm guessing the barrel would be matched to the 116 rod, ie the port timings would be set higher to match the longer rod......

Or lower crown height. Isn't the rb22 such a kit?

rb20 is a small block kit! never thought of the rb225 being a bolt on 116 rod kit!
