Last year I bought a set of C.A.T. 6.760 rods for $88. They're a little rough, but no rougher than a stock rod. The price was so low I decided to experiment.

I won't run them without doing some checking. They're definitely not usable right out of the box, because the price is so low that I'll need to measure at the least.

They might end up in a 5000rpm motor.

It's the nature of representatives of expensive things to denigrate the value of less expensive things. So about the article, I say consider the source.
