nothing wrong with stock rods in a stock displacement engine, if you must spend more $, get a good set of rod bolts.

Then try scrapbooking. If you wanna do it right, spend the money. I went with Mahle Forged pistons, and Crower rods

Any name brand H-beam is going to be more than enough for the vast majority of people.

Scat's can be had for <$400 and are just fine ...
