I am building a 355 with .125 dom pistons, going to be 450-480hp
Ive been looking at rodss and cranks.
what is a good reliable brand combo to go with? I run up to 7000rpms
I have a good set of pink rods to what you think?

i have h beams in my motor. 750 grams each. overkill and heavy for anything under 700hp but there nice to have. go with a 6 inch i beam it will handle anything you can give it under 700 hp and 8000 rpm. being 6 inch eliminates crank deflection and lengthens bearing life
