^^ dude please tell me your joking....a stock crank is extremly strong...as in it will deal with 800 whp+...but if you want to spend the 3000+K on a billet for some insurance then go ahead. But not everybody has that kinda glue kickin around.

Most of the issues with the Groden rods i have heard of are the threads pulling themselves out . Usually when they are dis assembled during a rebuild or checking bearings. I have no idea where this Billet Crank stuff is coming from on a 2.0. The worse i have seen is micro fractures around 1100 whp. There is ZERO reason to upgrade your stock crank. If you want to reduce rotating mass have it knife edged.
