Beginners question, how can you measure the actual lengths to know what are or were in the first place?

If everything else in the engine is anything to go by, they are not going to be what the engineers original designed, e.g. sitting in the middle of the, what, 200 thou limit?

I get that adjustables are going to be the easy fix, but that's not my question. I suspect an awfuly lot of people are taking an awful lot in good faith, or being concerned about something that they ought not to concern themselves with.

It's not like the factory builds them to measure like cam shims or whatever.

Other companies do, of course, sell shorter fixed rods if you heavily mod your engine, or even make them to measure.

Thanks.
