[quote][i]Originally posted by Mattb[/i] Tbh adam, i dont think anyone has tested a lump of that spec to destruction yet. Apparently a good set of standard rods can take a fair bit of abuse (around 350bhp is thin line where failures are expected) there has been talk of the center main bearing area being a particular weakness on the c20let block. if you do build up a let there are alot of the internals from your xe you can use: the conrods and crank are the same, as is the head (including the valves i belive) The only extras you would need are the inlet manifold (complete with throttle body, the two valves and injectors etc), exhaust manifold, and the other little fiddly bits - afm amel valve etc.. oh and low comp pistons of course. the xe block can be machined to take the turbo oil feeds and return as the galleries are just blanked off. i have a spare xe block converted to a let in my garden too :) [/quote]
