I have no experience with aftermarket rods in an l6 engine. most guys even those making 500 whp stroked and boosted are running stock rods, they are overbuilt and dwarf newer rods from say a VG30DETT. the earlier rods use a larger bolt and the ARP rod bolts are worth investing in but the rods themselves, unless you like to tell people you bought some fancy rods are useless. The only real upside is it's getting harder to find complete sets fo good rods, i had to buy a second set to replace one bent one when I built my motor.
