EA81 conrod trivia

Post by steptoe » Wed Jun 25, 2014 10:49 pm

I did say it was trivia

noticed as I stripped a set of rods off a crank, the cast in markings of what I believe was an import engine L B 14. Markings in the 84 build, 85 MY were L 5 51 . Were some marks in the bearings in this one too :)

All markings face the front of the engine. I've rebuilt two EA81's and can't recall if they went back in same fashion, or whether they are idiot proof and only fit one way ??
