Swapping rods my rods need some advice

[Serge]

Please guys give me a some input. If I swap my stock rods with some replacement H-beam rods like to put more nitrous. do I have to get the crank balance do I have to change anything else or can I just swap the rods and put new bearings. And I'm done.

Do you already have forged pistons?

No I was going to use the stock one I just wanted to swap the rods. There known to blow up around 500 horsepower and with my nitrous I'm pushing close to 500 I'm just worried I'll blow a piston

If you are swapping just rods, you won't be any better off honestly. The rods and pistons are iffy above 450. That's a lot of work to just fix half the problem

I've got a blower and am right around 500 but I drive so easy and rarely get on it. If you plan on flogging it, I'd do both.

Ok thanks. All just get some better piston. I have h- beam rods for it I'm taking the engine out this weekend. Does it mean I have to get the crank balance if I get new piston and rods.

It's always advisable, but not a requirement.

I would weigh all the rods and pistons and balance them at the least.
