Forum: Hot Heads Tech Talk Forums->Hot Heads Tech Talk->392 connecting rod question [prev topic | next topic] rocketj345 392 connecting rod question I'm wanting to use a set of aftermarket 426 Hemi connecting rods in a 392 to match a set of pistons I already have. How concerned should I be about the spit holes, which are in a set of stock 392 rods. Do I need them or not? Anyone have any experience with swapped rods, or advice on using different rods?   on: Sun 20 of Jun, 2010 [03:10 UTC] reads: 818 Posted messages Messages 10 20 30 All Style Plain Threaded Headers Only Sort Newest first Oldest first Score Threshold All 0 1 2 3 4 Find Top author message 51Coupe Re: 392 connecting rod question on: Thu 24 of Jun, 2010 [20:59 UTC] score: 0.00 I recently got new bearings for a 340. They didn't have the provision for the oil hole. I was told that the oiling hole is a relic from earlier days,when oiling was marginal,at best. Manufacturers have determined the oil hole is no longer necessary. author message rocketj345 Re: 392 connecting rod question on: Thu 24 of Jun, 2010 [04:05 UTC] score: 0.00 > I'm wanting to use a set of aftermarket 426 Hemi connecting rods in a 392 to match a set of pistons I already have. Do I need the spit holes which oil the thrust side of the cylinder and cam which are in a set of stock 392 rods(shoots oil out small hole in rod bearing going out the end of the big end),but don't exist on the 426.
