I purchased a built motor. During break in, I found out the hard way that the thrust washers were installed backwards. So, I was left with a bad engine bottom. But, the pistons and rods are good and they only have about 200 miles on them.

I ended up building the bottom end of my MSM motor and used a VVT head, so I have the MSM head left over. The stock MSM head has about 54K miles on it. Was running fine.

I had a set of rods and pistons that were going to be used to build the MSM motor before I found the built motor, so I just used them in the MSM bottom end build. That is the reason the used rods and pistons are for sale.

M-Tuned rods have "5230" on the side of them

Supertech Pistons are 84mm and apprear to be 8.6:1

Bolts are whatever Belfab provides with their rods.

Complete MSM head including valve cover $500. SOLD
Price does not including shipping. Will probably ship on a pallet unless otherwise requested. Keeping the MSM oil cap, sorry, lol.

Pistons and Rods assembled - $420 shipped - SOLD
I do not want to separate at this time.
