Manley rod strength
I was wondering if anybody has experience with these rods? I have a forged 370 with the Manley I beam rods and ARP2000 bolts. The Lingenfelter website only rates them to 750hp but I would think they would handle more than that. I want to push my truck into the 750-775rwhp range and I don't want anything coming apart. Thanks
Here is a link to the rods I have.

I found the same rod on SDPC's website and they list them as billet rods and rate them to 1200hp. Now I'm confused on what I have in this thing?
Here are both links with the same part number but two totally diferent ratings. Are the rods I have actually billet?
