The Molnar rods -- no thrust side oiling hole, or side slot (like the BT rods)? I'm guessing those aren't the custom 40-20 rods that Orion had, based on the crank pictured above. My set of Orion 40-20 rods don't have any thrust side oiling. I considered having a machine shop add (or is that subtract??) the BT rod style side slots.

Are there any aftermarket "H" beam 4AGE rods with a thrust side oiler?

I can understand being apprehensive about drilling the hole (matched to the bearing). But I would think even that would be possible from a machine shop.![]()
Combustion Trough A term used to describe a feature on the piston crown between the intake and exhaust. Ignited air/fuel mixture on flat top and dish pistons typically have better flame travel than a dome piston. Flame travel on dome pistons can be improved with “fire slots” and/or a combustion trough.

not apprehensive.... most "H" beam rods are so hard that drilling them damages the drills, or so I've been told.
As to the 7AG rods with the blacktop type slots, I have not seen that before
BE Oil Squirters This oil hole in the Big End neck allows pressure fed oil to squirt up to the piston and rod Pin End for additional cooling and improved lubrication. This option can be considered for engines without oil squirters.
