QUICKT Member 7 Member For: 15y 6m 28d Gender: Male Posted 28/10/09 02:36 AM Share Posted 28/10/09 02:36 AM (edited) Hi guys. Was reffered by another member to this site. So hi!I have a 2004 BA XR6T running 297rwkw and my rod has decided to go boom. Ive done some research and a cheap way out is to drop a long motor in from bf or get an atomic built motor. Or even an atomic bottem end and just use the top of my motor as it is undamaged.I have done some research on these forums and see a few people running atomic bottom ends. Is there any other competitors in the market? Or atomic engines are the only way to go?Welp cheers for the views! Edited 28/10/09 03:07 AM by Dagabond Read the rules...
