srp forged pistons, eagle h beam rods yup. Hard to tell from the picture but #3 rod looks bent a little. Maybe its the shadowing of the pic or angle. I def would check #3 rod out though

Like WYD said only 3 times, the SRP pistons are forged, H beam rods are good. Crank looks to be quality as well.
