March 14, 200520 yr comment_116730 I did get some but they had to be modified a bit to make them work. The ones I am using now fit well on my motor/car and are the same as which I will provide with the mounting kit I am assembling if interest ever gets off the ground Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/15269-castlemaine-rod-shop/#findComment-116730 Share on other sites More sharing options...

March 14, 200520 yr comment_116738 I might be interested very soon but i need it for an RB26DETT, you do those? I'm prob going to use the techniques and parts stoney says in his how-to on hybridz. His car seems very solid after it. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/15269-castlemaine-rod-shop/#findComment-116738 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 14, 200520 yr comment_116765 I think the mounts may be different, I never really come across RB26 blocks to test. If you can find out if RB30/RB25 etc mounts fit an RB26 then you should get an idea.I think Stoney used a 200ZR sump which I have however.

March 15, 200520 yr comment_116925 Yeah the RB26 will be different i'd say. Once i have the engine and i know what parts i need i'll get on to you. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/15269-castlemaine-rod-shop/#findComment-116925 Share on other sites More sharing options...
