have to agree with you thereOriginally Posted by Scoff
It doesn't have a lot to do with boost bud. If you go overly safe on the c/r and make sure it's tuned properly then it'll be OK to 300hp I'd say. As you prob know I pushed standard pistons a lot further, only swapping them for forged because I got paranoid they'd let go. they came out looking like new. Rods on the other hand are crap. Invest in some steel rods and bolts, if nothing else
ive bent 2 rods in a month
first one went so i stripped the block i had spare second hand rods laying around so i re-gride the crank at my mates workshop fitted new shells
3 weeks later bent a different rod
good job a have 4 engines on the shelf
