    Grp

    GRP is the brand most of the top teams in alcohol racing trust. Great service, great product. They are a big reason why this site is still around, they have supported this site since we started almost 10 years ago.

    There are several rod makers with very good stuff.

    I run about the same deal, 2.200 pinned mopar 7.000 long, I always use R&R pro rods, quick turnaround on custom lengths and with Mike its really easy to get exactly what you want.

    I dont know about other peoples prices but a set of 8 cost me just short of $1200

    Hey Larry,
    Not trying to talk you into or out of anything, but just got my recent set of GRP's, 7.455" B/A series, 9 days from the phone call to the door, and there were only 3 numbers in the price instead of 4, and I'm a "nobody racer" FWIW.
