Yeah I understand Monty. I'm having a hard time trusting machinest right now. I will have more piece of mind with brand new Molnar rods. NEW doesn't mean perfect. I have resized many a NEW rod because it wasn't the right size or not round. Can't check one and call it good. Gotta check em all

Someone asked what the oil temp was and I don't know at this point. I'll have to ask Dyno operator. That was me Dave. When I dynoed my 434 that was one of the things they checked during every pull.

Doing it the old fashioned way , I see 275.00 I beams. You do get what you pay for.........I'd be looking CompStar at a minimum I Agree !!!!!!! Compstar Crank and Rods were used in my 565 SG Motor 900+HP 7400 at the stripe....this same motor was run in TS on NOS in a S10 Prostock truck running 4.70's....it is now in another SG car....was just freshened at approximately 300 passes and original builder said it could have gone many more. Compstar...Great Product !!!!!!!! Rickster

I was looking around yesterday and found k1 h beams for $666 and Molnar h for $580. I think Molnar's it will be. FWIW, I bought a couple of K-1 "ARP 2000 Material" (note the wording from website) replacement bolts for my K-1 H-beam rods from Summit. The little ziplock bag they came in was marked "Made in China" . I wouldn't be surprised if more than one reseller of the chicom rods may be using other than genuine ARP bolts. Read their specs carefully.
