Title says it all, what do you think of them?

 

extremely proven rods, in countless high horsepower builds. Overkill for a lot of people. Are a little on the heavy side.

 

Definitely heavier. Has anyone had complications because of their weight?

 

This would be the I beam rod correct?

 

yeah, they're I beams.

No, no complications. and I rev the **** out of my motor with a 100mm crank. if assembled well to good tolerances, they should be good. Maybe a better option is out there for a high revving low torque motor, I dunno. But I do know I'll be sending a rod through the iron block before that thing bends

 

I'm making 500+ whp on a green with these rods in my 2.3

2 road race events with no issues!

 

They are the rod of choice for most engine builds. Just do a search on that and you'll see.

 

Would these be the strongest rods out there?

 

Was just looking for opinions. Can't really find specific hp/trq capabilities. And the opinions I've come across are from 2009 lol.

 

650whp roughly 590tq. I was spinning so the numbers are a little off. Need to strap it down.

 

Will be on dyno hopefully in the next week or two but expecting to make 600+hp if all goes well. Previous owner built this engine but from what I've learned from him and reading on this site, the Manley's are the rods of choice.

 

I run them in my car..955/600 50+ psi on a mustang dyno. Car has gone 9.16 and trapped 165mph
