Hmmmmm went a bit power crazy eh. :lol:

The factory supply forged rods and crank, so you only have to find the pistons ;)

But if your baby is running a little lean up top, forged pistons will go the same way as the stockys.

I ran 18lb for a couple of days, but I started hearing voices saying "this is not good"

I heard that the TS Magna 4G54 rods are the best of the factory offerings in terms of strength. Not sure, though. Maybe someone can confirm this?
