callies rods I'm thinking bout building a bigger motor that can handle a 300 shot of nitrous.
I have pretty much decided on the Callies crank (engine builder says easier to balance than Eagle), JE nitrous pistons, but am not sure on the rods.
I am thinking I should do more than the standard Eagle H beam rods. Engine builder suggested Callies rods as an upgrade. I havent really heard a lot about them. Should these be good enough to handle 800rwhp or should I step it up to a Lunati billet rod?
As far as other internals, someone mentioned I should use "hellfire rings" for nitrous.
Any other suggestions?

You might want to post this question in the nitrous section.........I know you'll get some good responses in there, and yes I would think the Callies rod should work fine.
