Dubsingh 0 Posted June 20, 2007 not sure ....may be diff inorder to achive the 0.1 on the 2.8 lol....i may stand corrected Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Blassberg 0 Posted June 21, 2007 The extra capacity comes from increased bore. The strokes are the same so I would think that the rods are the same length unless the little end position varies between the AAA and ABV engines.

ziderapple 0 Posted June 21, 2007 Ring VW and ask. They probably wont give you the part numbers but will tell you if they are differnet. Then ask for a price to scare yourself. :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NormanCoal 0 Posted June 21, 2007 As has been stated above, the only difference between the 2.8 and the 2.9 is the bore/piston size - all the 12v VR6 rods are the same Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
