Factory rod,How good?
I'm doing a rebuild and wanna know about the factory rod.I'm balancing the assembly and I'm using arp rod bolt too.
Need to know the HP/TQ they can take on MOTOR with a shift point of 6700 MAX?
I was thinking they're good to 600FWHP?
Remember I wont be spraying,its strictly N/A.

Re: Factory rod,How good?
You guessed correct. Just make sure you use a good rod bolt, like something from ARP. Check bolt stretch. You might also want to balance the connecting rods to within a gram of each other. As long as you don't go and do 300 miles at 6800 rpm, you shouldn't have any problems.Magnafluxing, and x-raying the rods are another thing you can try if you want to spend the extra coins, and you feel it's needed for how you're going to use the motor.
