I think the rods are aresome! And I really appreciate them a lot Jason. Like I said before, I wasn't going to do any of this because it was just going to be more money than I could throw at the Camaro right now. I was going to spend $1500, put a nice low miles used motor in it and be more conservative with the boost. Then when Jason threw the rods on the table, I just couldn't pass it up.

"One offs" are expensive, and like Jason said, if you want rods or pistons for the LFX custom is your only option. As far as forged piston price, Wiseco quoted me 155 per piston with pin and rings so your looking at just under 1k for a set.
