Aluminum rods would work ok if they clear your cam and you notch your cylinder walls . Outlaw sprinters change aluminum rods every 250 miles . It's not the same thing but that's a lot of runs at Bon

It is my impression that Aluminum rods fail due to tension loads, usually. Like backing into a corner at Eldora. Not much of that at Bonneville, with luck. I have used Bill Miller rods and found them

that Aluminum rods fail due to tension loads, usually. Huh? What's the reference and why does that lead to extraordinary tension loads? Benn

Hmm, 14.7 psi acting on a 4" dia. piston is less than 200 pounds. I would've thought the compression/buckling loading of the rod due to high rpm dynamic/mechanical loading (whether WOT or not) would
