Thank you! Yes I have seen them go up to 700 hp (at the crank). I would probably say that personaly I wouldnt go above 600 with them though. Is this going to be N/A?

I had Stage2 heads, futral F5 cam, Ross pistons, stock crank and rods with Katech bolts, it shifted at 6800 with a 200 shot of TNT and with the way tnt judges their shot size(at the wheels) that had to be about 750-775 hp at the flywheel. Stock rods are forged by the way powdered metal was forged together to make them so I cant see why they would be that weak. If you have an 01-02 model then your stock rod bolts may hold up a little better but if its already apart go ahead and change them.
