Stock Eliminator Rods
How many runs do you normally put on a set of H beam rods before changing them out?

Re: Stock Eliminator Rods
A bunch.....I run aftermarket rods and
have some shortblocks in my bracket car that the rods have 10 Seasons and 1000 passes. I check bearings and do a valve job around 250 to 300 runs I run Race Rings in a lot of my cars (Gregg Luneauk) from TriCity Performance = I ran 1000+ passes on them and they still leaked down pretty decent! Currently 400 plus in my O/SA Aspen Wagon on Rings and probably 800 on the Rods or more! Your Mileage may vary!!

Re: Stock Eliminator Rods
During a refresh, check the big end and small end dimensions and if replace the bolts every 4 engine refresh.
