Part number 6285 is now available.
This billet rod is stock length 3.95" center-to-center.
Fits a .688" wrist pin and a 1.375" crank journal
Some 195's have a 5/8" wrist pin and will require a piston change.
Please call 800-521-3560 if you need one.

QUOTE FROM JIM WITT
I think the best thing would be to offer both. As it is anyone running a 195 engine would have to build another engine using a 10 hp block also anyone using a Star piston would have to change to a stock piston. As far as I know there are no pistons for the 195 bore that use the large pin but you can get a 22 cu in piston that uses the small pin.

OK,
We now have the exact same rod, but for a 5/8 wrist pin.
The part number is 6284
So, to recap,
Both rods are 3.95" Center to Center and fit the standard 1.375" crank journal.
#6285 is for the .688" wrist pin
#6284 is for the 5/8" wrist pin

And now, we have a third rod for this engine.
#6287 is 4.45" or 1/2" longer than the other two.
It uses a 5/8 wrist pin.
