Default how much of a shot can stroker take with eagle crank and rods

Like the title says how much punishment can eagle rods and crank handle? i ask this cause i got a 408 stroker with eagle rods and crank with upgraded arp bolts and -2cc diamond pistons. I was thinking of spraying a 250 shot but is this too much or should it take the punishment

ATV's car has an egle. its had a 400 shot on it. Pistons will be the week point.

Oh and the tune will be why anything fails.

I was gonna say 250 as well. Seems like 300 is kinda the limit before some nitrous pistons become important.

What compression are you going to be running? With a -2cc dish you're going to need a large chamber to bring the compression down. That larger chamber is going to promote detonation over a smaller chamber. The rotating assembly should take it fine. The thing you're going to have to watch out for is detonation and / or lifting the heads.

yeah the crank and rods are diffently not the weak point here. and diamond pistons are a great piece. but if they are not a nitrous pistion. a 300 would be the max. but a 250 is where i would stop at.

I've been hitting my mild 408 w/ Eagle crank, rods and -12 mahles with 250. I'm reringing it now and thinking about hitting it with 300-350 this fall.

250 shot is still considered "low boost" for me with Eagle Rods and Crank.
