Ran those rods in my cuda from 1988-2000. They were coupled w/heavy TRW 2295 pistons. I shifted at 6500 and went thru the traps at 6800. Used off the shelf ARP rod bolts that were sold at Summit back in 1988. If the cylinder wall hadn't split no telling how much longer I could have ran them. That engine probably had 400-500 passes on it w/o any tear down.



Same situation with my old '80s setup. I still have the motor setting here in the corner. No split cylinder though. Last pass it made before taking it out of car was 6.65 @102 in a 3030# B body.
Shifted at 6500 went through the 1/8 at about the same rpm...5.13:1 gear.
