Don..To answer your question, No, I do not lenghten rods. I send them to people who can do it and are set up to do it. Yes, I run lenghtened rods in my pulling Deere's. The lenght depends upon what Dave Wickman talked about and the type piston you choose to stuff in your tractor. I have found this to be a relative low-buck thing to gain some torque/horsepower in a stock stroke tractor. Doug in Tx

Doug, If (you), Is referring to Tractor Pullers, Yes we do it all the time. To know how much, that has to be calculated and determined by what the stroke is (if changed) and what the compression distance of the piston is (if changed) and what kind of compression ratio you want to end up with. Of course you do want to keep the rods as long as you can have them but these factors will limit you in how much you can stretch them. If you have some of these factors I can calculate the rod lengths for you but it will only be as accurate as the measurement that I need to do so that you give me. Such as original rod length and piston compression distance, then I will need to know the compression distance of the new piston and the altered amount of increased stroke. Allot measuring, adding and subtracting of the measurements but it is done all the time and when done correct you will have what you want and need. Good Luck!! Dave W.
