The strongest parts available can break at 300WTQ if tuned bad, unless your were referring to tightening torque of the bolts themselves (joke ha, ha)

What will be your purpose for the car and redline?

Will you be doing the head yourself?

Its all in the tune. The tq will be kept really low on purpos, but have a good amount of horsepower up top.

I can safely say that a goal for this car is to trap 135mph.

Just because they are thicker doesn't mean they are better have you done your research on what they are made of? I have a friend that went Evo rods 2g piston on a dsm and my old motor consisted of a 1g rod 2g piston combo awhile back in my dsm days yada yada yada but Im not here to argue just make power till i build the next motor
