Hello all!
So quick backstory: I bought this 1990 Eagle Talon TSI from a buddy, who bought it from some other dude before we deployed. When I purchased the car, my friend told me the guy he bought it from said it had forged internals as well as comp cams, but was unaware of what internals/cams they actually were. It's also a G4CS block with a 4G63 head. I know the pictures aren't the best but trust me I tried! I only need to know if these rods look stock or forged because if the stock g4Cs pistons were used, I would have some crazy 12:1 compression ratio. I honestly can't tell the difference though. On the end caps of the rods it is stamped 248. This is my first DSM and I can't seem to find a decent picture as to what stock rods in a G4CS look like. As for the cams, they are each stamped with EP4604, as well as D1. I also took pictures of those. Not sure if these look stock or aftermarket?
Any help and input is appreciated! Thank you!
