that ---- looks good to me, 200 bones ain't too shabby. Try em out and then let me try it out

How much do you really need the rods? Spend that money on a stand alone. You really wouldnt need rods until you pass 15 psi or so as long as your fuel management are good. Do the most important things first.

AgentMurdoc

makes a damn good point. But whatever you decide, I'll help you test it out

Wow... what a coincidence... i just bought those rods... to compliment the SRP slugs....i said i was going to be ghetto and not upgrade the internals... but i now have 2 fried engines.... 1 with a burnt headgasket... and the other one has some nice extra crispy piston rings....

I was considering having the block sleeved... but that might be a bit overkill..., so ill just invest the money into the head instead... And its true about the fuel management ... (up to a certain degree) but there comes a time when the stock components fail not due to improper tuning... they just cant handle the physical stress that their beeing put through... try running 15+ psi on stock internals everyday..... sure you might hit it once or twice and **** your pants.... but do you think you can pull that ---- off everyday... ...... no.... thought so...

looks like i'll be packing my own lunch for work from now on... need every penny i can get...

JD

What was your management when you blew those engines?

450cc's An SAFC, never adjusted the timing oh yeah i was pushing about 11 psi on it. 12 in some occasions... that might have had something to do with it..
