[QUOTE="badcobra, post: 14432395, member: 20798"] If you can drum up the cash for the Oliver rods, by all means do it. All I can tell you is I have beat my stock cryo treated rods to death on an every week basis for years with the last two being just about 1000whp through an auto and I've never had an issue. If I still had a stick, I'd be at about 1050-1100HP at my boost level. My car's only job is to drive to where the fast cars and liter bikes are and deliver beatdowns. Oh, and I drove it to work today :) Anyway, I understand why you are nervous. I too had a lot of issues with breakage when I first went turbo and let the car sit for several years. Last effort was to build another teksid block, reuse my stock crank and rods, JE flat top pistons, fix the fuel system and switch to e85. Been rock solid since. Good luck man. [/QUOTE]
