With that little amout of spray the stock ones will hold up, but I suggest u save 265.00 dollars and buy crower sportsman rods and they will be plenty suffiecent for ur build up.

Lunati Pros are great! But you could get Eagles for about $499. This is what I put into my 6.0 buildup for spray.

Eagle rods are more than enough.

Reckless.... where are you getting them for 500?? Im getting mine for 575 shipped, but Im also getting the 6.1s and not the 6.125s.

Try Shaun Carter (valvegod@aol.com) or Diamond Pistons and talk to Chris Gelineau.

I think the Pro Mods and the Pro Billets are two different rods with two different prices.
