Message	even the stock rods, which are forged, are rated for 600rwhp, from what i read. i would think the cast pistons have a weaker limit. i'm no kyle, so please take my questions with a grain of salt, but no build i've seen uses stock cast pistons. at the very minimum/least, wisecos are used. who has used stock pistons for 800rwhp+?
