You could post your slaves (check out homemadeturbo projects) or you can buy a slave guard for 1oo bucks and install it that should give you some insurance for your slaves..

usually the rods go and blow through the sleeves, ls rods wont take much more than stock rods. maybe 75 hp more, i would still say the rods will go first.
