Does anybody have any experience with the VEPRacing 'H' pattern CrMo rods? They will be mated to 10.25:1 MTC pistons.

I'm afraid so Bob. That is Hugh Robinson selling the ones you've purchased. Hugh ported an earlier head that I ran on the Lump for a while.

If they are the same they are also marketed as DA Racing but I have no reason at this stage to question the quality. They appear to be well made and within tolerance.

What is your projected use?

Sorry I overlooked answering this.
Time or purpose ? Obviously I wanted some stronger rods and the price
was relatively reasonable* ($150 off his price if you don't need
the bearings he supplies) and they are to go in a mildly built 1150 motor
with CI pistons.
Time wise, when/if I can physically get to build my project bike. :(

I guess they are working well for you or we would have heard about it by now. :-)
*compare to Carillos

So far, so good Bobcat.
