Ford racing # M-6200-A75

Hi everyone,
Ford racing no longer lists theese. Anyone with a older catalog got a price? looking for a guideline if I see a set in the future.thanks.
Al

Al, I don't see that number in either the 1998 or the 2001 catalogs. Wut's a M-6200-A75.......for those who don't know

Sounds like FRPP truck rods ......long gone....I bought the last batch they had....maybe 2 or more years ago .

Is that pretty much like the Boss "S" rods?

NM....I think I found it. It's the D7VE-AA rod. I guess they give it a new number when they put it in the hotrod parts catalog. I'd think they wouldn't be too hard to find in junkyard motors. It was introduced in 1977 foor truck use.

Nothing special...truck rods...BUT... they were new . new is hard to beat

I like "NEW".

I like new too....
Didnt really want to mess with used junk if I could help it.
Too bad they dropped them, seems there would be a market for the little guys using stock dimension stuff.
Lem,how much call do you get for stock items like this compared to Chevy spec items?
Thanks.
Al

They were cheap...close out price ...less than $200 i think...dump'em price .

Dump a set on me for sure. Thats a deal when talking new rods with bolts.
Looks like time to hit the swap at Columbus...
Al

Hey Al,
You def. need to hit the Columbus Swap for sure. BUT,have part#'s w/you and know for sure what your buying,because you CAn and WILL get your A$$ burnt if you don't.

Hi Rick,
I hear ya there on the swaps. Been down that road before. For #'s, thats why Im here! Plus share my love. Paul Kane turned me on to theese Motorsport rods. Looks like Im a couple years too late But we'll see. He me told Kaase had them in a 800HP build

FEI, I asked Paul Kane why he hadnt been around. Hes been busy with the network 54 deal. It isnt up yet. It will be tightly moderated over there and not get out of hand like they did on the corporate forum. Hes waiting for the trouble-makers

Nick, I told him we missed him, and were "TRYING to be good boys over here
He said he'd make it over when he got a chance.
Thanks guys.
Al

Yep , We sold the last sets to Paul K. BTW , Paul will be here in KY. this weekend for the boatdrags...if any one wants/needs an autograph

And if you want a little FL sunshine, you should make it to the Turkey Rod Run in Daytona.....Thanksgiving weekend. If you can't find it there, it probably doesn't exist.

Ive heard of that one on the Maverick forum Kim. See how things look then. Maybe get a cheapy flight down and meet up?

Oh chit! Thats the weekend of Columbus,plus Thanksgiving, a bad weekend to fly.
Maybe drive down with the gang and leave them at the beach.

??????,
Where you coming from with that number? Thats a 91 year number. Supposedly they were a D7 rod. Plus the Ford number is on this thread title. Was this the ACTUAL # on the rod? I saw the boxes Paul had, and it was M-6200-A75. Please explain.
Maybe the 91 year model came about, since theese were used on early 514 crate motors in the early 90's?
Thanks.
Al

The engineering # cast on the rod [or other parts] is not the part # that's in the dealers parts book . The FRPP # is not the same as dealer parts .

I just checked the dealer just now. I used the F1#
Only 6 listed in the country! , and remanufactured now, instead of new. At $65 bucks a pop,thats no deal. Oh well!

Regards.
Al

He's "swap meet" bound for sure.

Just Remember That The Double Dimple Rods...

...which are FRPP # M-6200-A514 come bushed for .990" piston pin, where as the FRPP # M-6200-A75 have the press fit 1.040" standard Ford pin.

By the way, the FRPP catalog lists the A75's for $225/set, and I see Bryant Motorsports has some on eBay right now for $175/set.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the main reason Ford used the 6.605" rods in the 4.300" stroke engines is that they had a pile of cheap rods to use up .

Thanks for all the input guys.
