    Factory Mazda Protege Rods or Forged? Need help to identify

    Here is what is left of the pistons after I let a mechanic shop I didn't know work on it. They were definitely JE Pistons. Was able to confirm by the stamped number

    Factory Mazda Protege Rods or Forged? Need help to identify

    Bought an engine with "Forged" internals here, pulled them and can't seem to find any markings to identify these rods. I'm guessing they are stock but was hoping someone could confirm since I have limited knowledge. Thanks
