Stock bore. I do not plan on running over 8-10psi and i dont plan on going over 8000-8100rpm. I already have ARP rod bolts. What else would you do to the bottom end? I was hoping to shot peen the rods so they would be able to hold.

It's a method of taking heroin.... hahahahaha j /k...

Shot peening is a process that subjects whatever metal in question to some type of high velocity blasting that structurally strengthens the material to about 30-40% stronger...

I'm not an expert, as you can see by my explaination... but that's basically what it is....
