Default Max power on Eagle Rods.

Hi Folks,

Currently running Eagle Rods (With new bolts) in our budget build race car. Just wondering what power levels they can support. I'm at the the 515hp, 310tq range, and hoping to dial in another 10+psi from the GT4088.

Any ideas if they can support 650-700hp. I'd hate to find out the hard way...

if they're rated for 600hp, they can probably hold 800hp, but the company needs some kind of buffer....do it and let us know

someone has to push the boundaries....

Highest I've seen personally has been low 600's on the 3/8" style bolt. I've seen some of the old school designs go at low 300's.

Let us know how they hold up

Dang, Eagle big bolt rods hold more than the expensive Crower rods. Wasn't Earl saying before that the Crowers start to distort at 650+whp?

As long as you run the L19 bolts on them I think something else will fail before the rods do.
