Are the rods in our 6.5 engines pressed, or forged. I always opporated under the assumption that they were pressed, but don't really know. If anyone could shed some light on this for me it would be great. Thanks, Justin

Rods are either cast or forged, and have either pressed or floating wrist pins.

I believe the 6.2 and 6.5 engines are cast and pressed.
