Oh I am definitely giving my machine shop plenty of business for this build. I have some other engines running the LY rods without an issue, but they are just slightly warmed over where as this current build will be in the 550-600 hp and operating in the higher RPM range so I was looking for a stronger rod. Unfortunately with all of the less expensive ( <$1000/set) rods originating in China things are moving very slowly due to Covid lockdowns in China. Tom Molnar told the guy building my engine that he is just not getting the rod blanks from overseas so they are at a standstill until they do. I'm going to look into some of the higher end options, and I also posted a want ad here on Moparts offering to pay a premium if someone has a set of the Molnar or K1's they would be willing to sell. I realize this is the way the world works now, but the prospect of potentially losing two full seasons of driving is just really disappointing. I know many others are in the same boat.
