His Kseries rods seem to be holding 500whp rather easily? He has his own line of wiseco pistons as well. So golden eagle you think these rods are poor?

just a quick FYI to the guys who keep refering to xx amount of WHP that rods can handle is not the case of what rods are or should be rated at..

people who rate rods to hp capacity is just marketing..

look about the same as Tuner Toys rods

no news is good news i guess. hardly anyone comes and gives reviews when the product works as advertised, usually its only when something fails...

I think you have been hitting the pipe alittle bit to much recently

I have seen these rods hold more than Eagles in person
