Costom Aluminum rods $520/set
Can they survive daily driving use?

If they could survive boosted race use, i'd have to imagine they would be more than adequate on the street....

Anyone else?
I know that hight hp engines use these rods but they change their rods often.
I've machined aluminum B4 and I know how soft the metal is.
But, beats me on how well it will take high compression and long term use. (Even though it only reving to 6.5K)

those guys rebuild frequently because they use alluminum rods and don't want to risk throwing one. stick with forged. for street use it's not worth the risk
