i would just get some eagle rods. They are very cheap price wise around 350 normal cost. Dont waste your time shotpeening them

wht do you need pics? nobody sees em anyways.

its not worth shotpeening unless you're racing in a class that requires you to use OEM parts.

better off buying aftermarket rods as you'll have to take the block apart.

shot peened rod still break and bend. better than stock, but barely
