416 stroker ???

340, I do hope Eagle gives you something for your efforts...lol Since as usual, you're asking for justification for a differing opinion, here's why I dont bother.The truth for me is, to get a set of stockers redone right (new bushing, ARP bolts, and machining/rebuilding) is less than a set of SIRs "properly prepared". I pay $270 for that including bolts. If Eagle cant machine them right, (properly prepared means resizing the big ends for those that dont know, translates into $100 more for the set for me) and I know of a history that had problems there was no way I could find even if it might have been addressed, there's no way I'll use them. I end up with a rod I've spent $400 on ($289 plus 10.95 from Summit, plus $100 to "properly prepare") that is slightly better than a stock rod, and in my head, might have a problem where it would fracture. I've run stock rods to 7200 with heavy TRWs on them more times than I should have. The engine was 400hp plus a 150hp spray kit. now-a-days I'm running much lighter stuff, and it's better balanced. So I have no reason to run SIRs. If I need more rod (4" arms do if they go over 6K) I'll spend the extra $200 to get H beams.

In short, if I get sick after I eat at a resturant, I dont go back. Ever. Even tho 98% of others had no issues, and it may not even have been the food. In my head I got a bad taste, and I dont go back. If I hear that 10% of the customers are getting sick, and nobody tells me a definitive reason why, I wont feel good about trying the place. Just MY OPINION. Every cook has thier own feelings...lol.
