Both rods seem to be about the same. I know Craig had some type of metal testing done on them and they got a good grade from the "metal expert" (metalurgist?).

IMO run either one with peace of mind. I bought rods when TT first got them and didn't have em for D16Y8's, so I didn't have a choice. You are definately not the first person to run the TT rod and you won't be the last.
