I believe RPM international made them. https://rpminternationalinc.com/

RPM discontinued making that Crower billet copy. And that is what they are. I called RPM years ago and talked to this Asian guy who ran the place and he told me a man walked into his shop with a set of Crower billets and asked if he could copy them. So he did, not exact as the cap is noticeably thinner but that is how they started out. No qualms about copying stuff you know.
I have a set of 6.8s from Ace but am holding on to them for the time being.

I have a set of PPR connecting rods, never used. I'll check which version they are in the morning.

I'll send you a message.

Are these what you are looking for?

Make me an offer. I'll have to dig around to see if I can find how much I paid for them.

I have a set of the max-a-lite A beam rods that I have been sitting on for a bit. They will be going in my new 4” stroke build. The one thing I do recommend is changing the communist arp bolts for USA made ones. Cliff recommended that to me. They are great rods. Mine are a 716grams a rod. I also have the ultra light I beams he made.
