I had everything checked out when i originally built the motor 14,000 miles ago in my 360. i was running edelbrock heads on it then. i had a spark plug come apart and mess up the piston.

so would it be safe to use the rods and bolts over if they didnt look messed up? Its a street car and i dont figure on running the crap out of it at high RPM's. i used to shift the thing at 6700 but figure i wont need to wind it up as much with a stroker crank. I like the idea of torque at a lower RPM
