I'd favor Crower or Oliver, although you'd have to talk to either of them to get what you wanted. I have some Crower I-beams 7.100" long and they are impressive.

I bought a set of these Manley I-beam rods from Mike Bogina. He had them on the shelf. I had them checked by my machinist and the rod bolts had some galling on them from the factory, so we had to replace the rod bolts, dowels and resize the big ends to fix the problems from Manley. I'd only buy rods new from the factories after that so I can return them if they aren't right. I don't know if Manley still makes these or not.

Childs & Albert used to make a nice set of I-beam rods. I bought a used set from Joe Teuton. They have CARR bolts in them, so replacing those is around $800/set. I don't know if the dowels can be replaced or not. They are around 900 grams, as are the Manley I-beams.
