Have a question for some input. I just acquired a few fully balanced rotating assemblies from a friend of mine. I plan to use one set in a turbo 360 I'm building for my dad. Mild Turbo build 360 using open chamber edelbrock heads with a non-decked block so roughly 9.5:1 CR, a custom .470-.470, 232/232 @ .050 on 110 LSA solid flat tappet cam from Racer Brown and either a 500 cfm edelbrock afb or 750 AVS customized for blowthrough on top of a Torker 2 intake. The turbo is a On3 T4 88mm my friend gave me. My question is do you think the Eagle SIR rods that are in the rotating assemblies will hold on anywhere from 6 to 10 psi of boost since they are I beams made of the 5140 steel instead of the 4340? Rough goal is like 600 horsepower.
 
The stock rods would hold up fine with the right bolts. So will those. You need to add main studs, head studs, good rod bolts, MLS gaskets, and 0.030" ring gap.

I'm curious what your plan is to blow through that style of carb. You need some kind of boost referenced enrichment. Also those carbs use metering rods which will not be effective with boost. Curious the plan there.

Look up these guys on YouTube:
