5.9 magnum rods?

How strong are the stock bolts as built from the factory? This motor will have stock pistons , never go over 6200 rpm, will shift before 6,000 rpm. Also, what is the torque spec for those bolts?

I don't remember torque specs off hand but the rods are pretty darn good. What kind of power are we looking at?
