Guest jock_26 Posted May 8, 2006 Hi, Rebuilding s16 engine and was wondering what conrods are compatible with this ? Does it make a difference if g/pins are pressed or circlipped. Using the crank from gti-6 with three s16 rods pistons complete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jock_26 Posted May 10, 2006 Anybody got a spare s16 conrod? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonzai 2 Posted May 10, 2006 as ive learned from experience, you can get rods from a same engine type, but they may not be the same weight. i sourced a replacement which was 30g lighter than the 3 original rods from my Mi project Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TB_205GTI 1 Posted May 12, 2006 Anybody got a spare s16 conrod? Nope, but I've got four EW10 conrods and pistons, if you can use that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petert 588 Posted May 13, 2006 No conrods are compatible. The XU10J4 conrods are unique to the S16 and 2L Mi16. Later XU10 engines have pressed pins and I'm unsure of the lengths. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
