      I've had them for a while. Carrillo wanted $350/each to make new ones. I'm selling these at a bargain and they are designed to fit 60 degree V6.

        Those are very nice too bad you have to get custom pistons made to make them work

          CP-Carrillo will make a custom set of forced induction pistons for $800-$900 with rings and pins...

          With these rods that is a bullet proof bottom end.

            I'm not sure why anyone would use a strong rod and not use an equally strong piston in it.

              I understand that point. Just overkill for my application at the moment That's all I was trying to say. I just bought race boost heads etc. and can't swing the expense right at this point. GLWS

                AH IC. Not sure what other people use for boosted applications. There are a few decent rods out there. But if you want US made from US made alloy there aren't a whole lot of options.

                  For my stroker assembly I have Manley SBC rods....

                    I almost bought Manely for this build, but they wouldn't customize with the rod bolts I wanted. I figure if I'm buying new rods I shouldn't have to pay my machinist to resize them for better bolts....
