I have a set of H beam in my Superstock motor (580-600hp) 2 seasons w/ no problems. Make sure you have good rod bolts, check the size and ballance them.

Are they H-Beams or I- Beams? I have used several sets of the H-Beams and put them to the test. Not bad for the $ in my opinion. We have a set in my red Deaver hydro ,360" SBC, blown "8" pounds with a 150 shot of gas and turning 6700rpm. So you make the call....

If you're going to run it hard put the L19 bolts in and you should be good to go!..

yes they have the L19 bolt upgrade. with these comments it makes me feel like i made the right thing by ordering them. had me worried at first. i do plan on having the machine shop check all area's of the parts. do not want to spend the money and have to do it all over again.

That's the smart thing to do, providing it's a reputable machine shop!..
