Default Crower Rods

Has anyone had any success with obtaining Crowers for a GSR lately?
I tried everywhere, They are BACKORDERED (several months already)!!! And my engine buildup is at a standstill. If anyone knows of a source please let me know, also I heard that the Pauter Rod is pretty decent, has anyone had any experience or knows anyone with the Pauters?

Have you tried both Nopi in Atlanta and Race Engineering in Florida? Both are Crower dealers.

If you can't get Crowers, the Pauters are excellent. IMO better than the Crowers. Sakura uses Pauter rods. We also use them in our racecars. I think the Pauter rods are the only remaining pieces left from the original build-up of that motor.

They dont have any, they are on back order since last October for 15 sets, my supplier Dynamic Autosports is also on back order for over 20 sets, Nopi is not selling them yet.

Has anyone used Eagle rods? Their design is pretty nice and strong. Also come with the high strength rod bolts.

When I called, thats what I was told, I dont think they will try to lie either. Probably the set U got was in stock since then. Usually a company will not wait until they are down to the last set to order.
Dynamic Autosports are also on backorder for several months now and they are one of the #1 distributors in the country.

I am not sure how strong they are, I am looking for 450-500 WHP. I am not sure the Eagles could handle that.

what kind of price difference are we looking at here? I mean between the Eagles, corwers and Pauter...How come nobody uses Cunninghams? Steph is running them and he swears by them.

Who is Steph, Papadakis? If so I bet its a custom one-off set. I can also get a set from Jun or Top Fuel but I will be looking at 900-1000 bux
