    I'd suggest the MGP ProMod rods for a blown application. There cap centering is superior and they use the A-1 rod bolts.

    small block rods

    Call Jeff Fowler at Fowler engines 614 258 2924 they make the nicest rods I have seen or used. Fowler rods are made from billet aluminum and they are absolute works of art! and one real nice feature is that the caps are doweled so ,no fumbling around with feeler gauges .
