Stock LA rods

To the OP, there is not set hp/tq number where the rods fail becuase there are a gazillion variables. Stock rods are great for a nice street driven mopar, hell my brother has a 381rwhp 360 with factory cast crank and rods (76' pieces) and he's got 42,000 miles on that setup! But his msd pills cut spark at 5700rpms so its not screaming and thats the key...

Only a few people have mentioned RPM's...stock rods are plenty stout up to about 450hp, but once you spin them past 6000rpm's or so on a regular basis, you begin to walk the tight rope (same story with a cast crank). If you're bulding a high revving screamer, go forged for piece of mind and longevity
