Karl-The Nascar crank had a C9 part number, but the larger rods had a C7 part number. I thought the Nascar crank was for use with the TP heads, and of course, the TP was outlawed by Nascar in about 68, of course there was a lot of cheating back then, so who knows when parts were phased in and out. I don't recall the heavy Nascar rods being polished, I am going to have to dig mine out and take a look at them. I know the Lemans rods did not come polished as I have peened and polished a bunch of them. Must have 4 or 5 sets of them stored around here somewhere, I guess I should sell them as I am never going to use them.
