I planned on bringing it but Sharif said I couldn't fit it through the dragon. I could drive the 75' rig through a drive thru...backwards

I am planning on throwing a set of eagles in my 350Z here soon and seeing what they will hold. I know they work in my Lexus running low 9's...

That is a stroker motor and those are most definitely not stock sleeves.

GTM makes their own rods, that are suppose to be pretty strong. Pauter rods have held up to 2000hp without issues.
