Cryo treating
Hi guys!
im building a 7.3, it’s a 96 block, with forged rods.
so far it’s been bored .20 over, been magna fluxed and the crank is getting polished.
what parts would you have Cryo treated other than rods?

Depends on what you are doing with your truck and how much time and money you have to invest in an attempt to reduce failure.
on our race trucks we do the R&P, axles, ujoints, clutch drums, , input shafts, output shafts. pretty much every high stress metal part in the truck ? Does it help ? I dunna know, stuff still breaks

The point was, if you are going to cryoing one part to be more durable then cryo them all. Block, crank, rods, pistons, wrist pins, valves, valve seats, heads, rocker arms.
A better way to think of it is what part don’t you want to be more durable ? Then leave those parts back at the shop when you make the trip to the cryo freezer, take everything else with you.
