Go scat there 4340 range from 200 -250 depending on options.
Ohio Crank has 4340 rods for 199-229 depending on bolts.

Last I talked to them they use the same casting as the scats and due the final machining in house.

He said come back in 3 weeks (give me time to save up money) then after that keep checking in periodically and we will have everything set up I say this time next month but until then I have that much time to change my mind 32412332 times on what i want to do with the top end

go with the forged rods, than you dont have to buy ARP bolts. Which by the time you re condition them your dam close to scat I beams. Get Le1 heads, and something like 228/236 stick or 230/234, etc, etc. run a stock intake, stock tb for now. Do those later on, they are easy to get to.

Your going to need money for the n2o kit and if you want it to run quick a rearend sooner or later.

should do 390-400rw with a 10bolt/m6 car.
