Whether you are talking about rods or pistons you are running on borrowed time. |

i am talking bout pistons but also have stock rods in it that arent hardened and havent had any problems and have five years on them |

my experience is that the pistons will be fine up to 1250, but the rods not so much... we ran our stock 466 piston 6 yrs... no signs of any problems, but we run a cooler and water inj....exhaust temps for the most part are cooler |
