I was wondering if anyone knew about the evo 8 rods (as far as
being forged) and if they were closer in size to the 1G dsm or 2G?

 

sorry about post, thought I was in tech forum!!!!!!!!!!

 

if I remember 2g.

 

The tech manual says they are forged piston and rods.

If so, I don't see any reason to upgrade until the first brave
souls start busting them from too much power.

Stock cast DSM pistons are good for 400hp. I would *guess* the EVO forged units would be good for at *least* as much.

 

I believe the rods are forged but the pistons are cast.
