sbc connecting rods

[Lynnmsp]

Looking for new rods for my project.What are your likes or dislikes of eagles,oliver,comstar,lunati pro mods I beam or H beam.I had a set of I beams (lunati pro mods) which broke after 91 runs.They were I Beam and broke in 4 pieces and never hurt the crank.Motor never see's over 7200.

I've been running Lunati Pro Mod rods 5.7" in my 355" sbc for years. I put hundreds of runs on them, crosses at 8000-8200 rpm. After several years of running them I replaced them with another new set of the same rods just because I didn't know how long they would last. I guess it just depends on the application.

I use howards rods in my 427 small block over 350 passes they are billet if I remember good for 800 hp I dont work the engine to hard 7100 through the lites. They are 6 inch rods. Runs 10.90 at 134

I use Oliver billet 6" rods in my 434. I have 200 runs on them running @ 7800. I mag them every 100 runs or so. I think these are the best rods for high hp bracket small blocks. My motor makes 830 on the pump and runs 10.90@ 151.00 at 2830 lbs. If you need help or info send me a pm.

What the heck, Who do you run an ET with a MPH 1.0 seconds faster?

Is it like a throttle stop car or something? Im a little confused at your ET VS MPH

Yes, that would be a throttle stop car. Super Sreet(NHRA) or Hot Rod(IHRA). And a very fast small block 10.90 class car for sure.
