only ones ive seen are people pushing it very very hard, poor tuning with very high cylinder pressures, or hydrolocked.

Just curious but with said trucks did you or they have a cylinder pressure monitor hooked up? How can you say they had "poor tuning with very high cylinder pressure"?

so i guess having timing at 25* at 2300rpm and 90-100mm3 wont create high cylinder pressures..

i dont want to turn this thread into "that" type. you know what i was getting at bud.

I broke an LMM rod somewhere around 725-750 HP. Funk was making more then that on LBZ rods and it lasted a long time and got ran hard and didn't break. Not sure if they were bent or not though
