Which rods
I've decided that ill do rods on my build since in going for 600+ hp
My question is which ones?
I'm look at these or the hypermax ones.

I'm open to other choices

I doubt it. I had the engine ready to go back in but my x mas bonus was so nice that I figured ill do rods. As of today my engine is a empty block. After I get the rods the bottom end and heads will go out to be balanced and blueprinted. I sure its overkill but I want it to be as reliable as a stock engine.

You sur are correct. That engine is out of a 01 that had 178k on it. I paid 300 for a used long block. Im debating if the obs engine that has 53k on will go up for sale to help with the build or to keep it.
