I'll take new offshore 4340 steel to 30 something year old 10 series carbon steel any day. If one knows the history of the forgings its one thing, but unknown rods ? Not saying I won't use a set of OEM rods, but then again I do my own machine work. Costs me nothing but my time, not everyone has that luxury. Here is a set of Magnum forgings that I'm planning on using in a low buck 500+ HP 360 build.
Balance pad ground off
Balance pad contoured/lightened
Beams ground and polished then heavy media blasted. 683 grams total weight. Typical LA rods weigh around 740 IIRC.
