Im starting to asemble my 383 an i have a set of SCAT 4340 2-IRC5700 Rods. They are bushed. The ? is should they just slip over the pin and be able to spin them or should the have to be forced in. All of mine had to be forced in, almost pressed in. The postons i have are SpeedPro flat tops with the C-clips to hold the pins in. The pins go into the pistons prety easy wich is normal i beleave.

I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE FAIRLY SNUG BECAUSE ROD IS BUSHED NOT FULL FLOATING BUT IM NOT 100% SURE CHECK THIS WEB ADDRESS AND ASK THESE GUYS-- CRANKTECH@SCATENTERPRISES.COM[/email]

ok, talked to the shop i got the stuff from. They are saposed to be slip fitbut he said they will more than likely be tight at first. If there to tight to give them a tiny light 1 rev wipe with soem 320 emery cloth 1 time on each side . So i did and there perfect now. I got the complete bottom end done. Just have to get a degree wheel take care of that stuf throw the pump and pan on and then the heads. All clr checked out good. Should be back in the camaro ina week or so.
