#38665, "forged pistons"


          

Any one besides TommyBoy running forged pistons on the stock rods? I read on the board here that the stock rods were good to about 15-17 psi.

I'm sure other have done the same thing. Tommyboy was bending stock rods at 14+ psi. I wouldn't push any more than 11-13 on the stockers. Rods aren't that expensive, you should buy them now and you shouldn't have to buy another set again.
