Look around the forged ones are around $500 range--they are easy to balance and that saves the diff in $$ usually making it a wash--some rod piston combos come up pretty easy with the cast but it is a crap shoot--could need Mallory metal or expensive flexplate etc--On the other hand I have made lots of them with cast and never had a problem but forged is better in the end IMO

I wouldn't dream of takeing one to 7000. Even in a mild aplication they are a crap shoot. I have a friend with one he just wanted to have more power in his 5.9 magnum pickup and he installed a eagle stoker kit and had it checked and rebalanced locally and the front of the crank just snapped off on where the over lap is between the front crank pin and front main journal, there was a big bubble in there not to mention how much materiel is not there that is there on my SCAT crank and it was a disastor doomed from the begining and no magnaflux or anything would have detected it. His motor was very mild just had KB 356 pistons eagle rods no porting of anything and he even used a stock 5.2 magnum cam to get a little more tq with virtually no $$$ and it couldn't take that for a couple weeks and Eagle was of no help. Also if you look at there rods compared to a SCAT the differance is night and day and the metal is a much better quality so for the very minimal $$$ differance I would not use anything from eagle ever again, go with the SCAT and sleep well

The favorite connecting rod of any serious small block build,eagle sir's. Can we say kaboom!!! 520hp in an Abody will get you 10.60's and 125 mph. May be 460 hp is the limit for the sirs.

I've got 2 seasons on mine in a 408 motor. Around 450HP at the rear wheels. Don't wind it to 7K though. I shift around 6 - 6200rpm.

I ran a cast mopar crank in my 408 for 3 years, around 4-500 passes or so. It dynoed 553 horsepower and I don't remember the torque off hand. Only pulled it out to put in a 416. The engine builder said that with a cast crank not to use a transbrake with it.

I bought a cast one for a 408ci interim motor for my F.A.S.T. Duster. It took me to 11.90 @ 114 which was very good considering how we had to run. I wrung it only to 6200 or so. The amount of meat in the arm between the 7/8 journal and the rear main bearing journal was scary to look at but didn't cause an issue.

One very nice positive is that it didn't need any mallory to internally balance. I ran Eagle H beams and SRP forgings.
