Damn, that was a great run with this current setup. Those are the brian crower rods right? Not the actual crower rods?
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...

Arent GTM rods suppose to be stronger than Pauters? How about titanium rods? I think Pauter makes them

Hal... Were the rods Billet or Forged? Anything forged will
usually be stronger for the simple reason of grain structure
gram for gram weight wise.

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