Stock rods What are the stock rods rated to? I would like both RPM and Torque numbers.
My setup is as follows:
Stock Crank
Stock Rods
ARP Rod bolts and Main studs
ARP Head studs
Cometic Head Gasket
Ported and Polished 241 cast heads
TSP MS4 Cam
Diamond Stock Replacement Pistons
And also 150 wet shot.

GM's performance catolog rates them at 500 HP. No other referance is given to them. However they are safety rated quite a bit. My cousin's 99' Vette is makeing almost 500 HP at the rear wheels right now N/A. On this mornings Horsepower TV they took a stock 05' or 06' C6 Vette and put a twin turbo STS kit onto it and were makeing 537 rear wheel HP at 7 lbs of boost. This was STS's basic kit for the C6.
