Off topic - Didn't Lee from Mig build yours Craig?I was always under the impression that Phillip knew what he was doing. Its the same with a lot of semi pro's in the industry unfortunately, they may be good at what they do, but handling other peoples money requires business skills that many of these people lack.

Yes, Lee303. That was also a very expensive mis-judgement.
Williams rods are Chinese not Polish.
They are some of the better 'cheap' rods available.
Many of the rods including most of the commonly available are also Chinese just re-branded and often re-boxed.
The price is the best give away.
I you want or need better rods then you need Arrow, Saenz, Carrillo or Farndon.

As an update to this, i agreed to a payment plan that Phil has stuck to, for which I'm grateful and he is also replacing the set of rods that were questionable.
Once I receive the rods and the last 2 payments I'll consider the matter resolved and dealt with.
It's just a shame it all came to this.
I'm amazed you got this result GJ!
Sorry to drag this up but I'm but it turns out it wasn't a result!!! The block had a different 5th bearing cap and was 5 thou out of round when tightened, the supposedly polished crank is covered in hot oil stains and rust, the shells are scratched and scrap, the Pistons look like they're used.
I've had to source a new block, crank and Pistons!!!
