I'm asking bluntly what rod is better or what rod is better for what condition. I'm debating between an Eagle H-beam and a Lunati Billet Pro rod. Both will be the usual 5.4" sbc journal...etc. The engine is a >small< 3.1", standard bore, boosted around 15psi, extensive induction work, solid roller cam, shifts will hopefully fall right around 7000rpm. Now you have the engine background, and thoughts on the rod?? Thanks for your time everyone!
