Default 1.9 american tall block

hi everyone, does anybody know where i can get steel rods for the 1905cc american tall block cvh engine please........ive look around and i cant find anyone who sells them off the shelf.....specialised sell them but theyre over £1000 !!!!.

the company that will be doing my rebuild has said they can get them made, prob by farndon but i just wondered if there was an off the shelf option as i know people have obviously used steel rods in these engines before, DanS for one. im also on the look out for forged pistons, any recommendations ???, any help will be much appreciated everyone.

cheers

dave.
