After seeing the pin height, the builder clearly didn't want to rely on a support rail ONLY and wanted some piston meat under the oil rings, even though it's minimal and a super friendly long rod ratio for nearly zero wear from side loading as seen by the clean skirts.....otherwise, that's where your extra cubes are.

The holes in the pistons are gas ports. they use cylinder pressure to seal thin low radial tension rings on the compression stroke. Less parasitic drag type deal. Because you have so much stroke pulling the skirts out of the bore @ BDC. You should radius the bottom lip of the cylinder bores to the crank case. It’s time consuming a lot of great engine builders don’t do it but on a budget it reduces scuffing on the skirts. Especially on the thrust side. I love Titanium more than most but it’s not a great material for many things in a engine. And it’s ALWAYS A COMPROMISE! Ti is almost impossible to predict failure or inspect. Ti makes a great spring when your willing to sacrifice service life for dynamic performance. Both factors make it a terrible choice for connecting rods. Especially in high stroke high Bob weight application. Titanium is light because it’s not very dense. It’s a good work around in a N/A application with lower cylinder pressures and higher piston velocity’s. It’s not that rad for forced induction nor Bottled Babies. Springs don’t make good connecting rods most of the time.

All good info! I know what the gas ports are for, I was just messing with my buddy Scott. The BDC part I commented about, the stroke of this motor for this deck height actually leaves the piston entirely in the bore. Skirt and all at BDC. You can see the wear mark on the cylinder wall. No where near the bottom of the sleeve.

From what I've heard some yrs ago from Greg Cunningham was not to nick a titanium rod as it can be the starting of fracture point to where the rod starts to crack.. So setting it on top of the carb hats makes cringe at the thought of it getting bumped and falling off.. It should rpm like no other.. Good luck, I've talked to Lisa Kubo through Facebook about Titanium rods as I have a set for an ej25 that Greg Cunningham made for me a while back. Perhaps before I die they'll make it to the motor. She advised me to make sure to lap the con rod bolts very well, yet know one has been able to tell me how to do that.. I'm guessing it has to do with a difference in material between the bolts and the titanium as they may want to gall.. This might be a factor with a fresh rod, but since yours have been together and run you may not see this problem. If you have any i sight on lapping rod bolts do tell.. Im subcribing to attempt to learn what I don't yet know about Ti rods..

The Long rod also hangs around tdc on the intake and causes port pressure lag,,,,it starts the intake stroke later than a shorter ratios do.the Best rod ratios are generally between 1.60 to 1. 75. Theoretically.

Even though it's a long rod, the rod/stroke ratio is only 1.6842.....a stock stroke and rod 5.3 is 1.6836. It's not an excessively long rod from piston dwell at tdc standpoint. I would be more concerned about the Mallory slugs being welded on the edge of the counterweights.

@10:58 .......From an F1 engineering perspective these rods are...erhmmm......useless. Because the markings are stress raisers . F1 rods from na era had to make 1.3 million cycles max and were designed such way....Once spoke an engineer who investigated in one F1 team breaking rods in engines built specific in only 1 of the several assembly rooms. Turned out in the corner of that room stood a small grinder with diamond wheel . That spread ultra sharp dust.... That reached the tables on which the rods were layed down prior to assembly. By lying the rods down , picking them up from table and put into engine the diamond particles made scratches from which cracks grew........ So these rods are a bit too heavy....but alas who cares ?? It functions so ....

so what are you doing with the springs and valves ? I’m asking because I’m working on a 460 that will be very similar.
