Default Cheaper rods with Katech bolts?

I recently installed a set of Katech rod bolts in my motor. After it blew i decided to do a complete rebuild using scat rods and Mahle pistons. My question is... can i buy the cheaper rods with the not so good rod bolts and put my Katechs in them?

You'd be hard pressed not to use the Manley rods homie...

Pm me if you need to and ill set you up with the people building my motor and the thoughts on the rods. we had a long discusssion and as far as bang for the buck, the Manley's are the ****.
