Depends on the H or I or A or X. In general the H-beam rods are the "cheap" aftermarket rods and the other designs are the better/stronger rods....however almost any of them will hold 400+whp.

It really depends on your power goals. For most of us, Eagle H-beams will do just fine. If you need something more, i would look into the Manley Turbo Tuff rods.
