Brenyw Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 Can anyone please tell me the connecting rod centre to centre length and thickness, pin diameter on an N9Tx engine. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenyw Posted July 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 The reason I ask is I am trying to do a comparison with the 7T2 engines (predecessor to N9T) we have here (in Chrysler Centura). The rods on the 7T2 engine are 28.2mm wide, BE bore 55.885mm, SE bore 24.006mm., length C-C 137mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brenyw Posted July 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 I was especially hoping someone could tell me the thickness of the con-rod, as others on this site say they have used Saab rods, however they are only 26.4 thick, compared to 7T2 engine at 28.2 thick. (The thickness would need to be measured as it doesn't seem to be in any literature) Just wonder how these Saab rods don't cause a problem due to side clearance on the crank.

Bean Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 28.3mm is what I measured.Sorry for the delay - If I don’t respond it’s because I haven’t seen the post!Rabin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenyw Posted February 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2021 Thanks Bean. I lost the site for a while but just found it again a couple of days ago. I wonder how people manage to use the Saab rods which are about 2mm narrower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRDT Posted February 4, 2021 Report Share Posted February 4, 2021 If the rods are located by the pistons like in the XU9J4 then you're fine but it's quite uncommon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
