your gonna need around 650hp to run a 9 manual the 650 will get you well into the 9's your rods are a gamble get oil on the rear tires and you might die mayve spend another 1000 and get some rods bro goof luck with the build also make sure you call jim berry when that os geikon clutch gives up

Ask Tubbed1 what happened to him at the racetrack when he pushed his rods too far. Its not worth the gamble.

wat happend :S

Snapped a rod or broke the piston pin and then the conrod slapped a hole in the side of the block and oil p!ssed all over the track and his tyres slipped on the oil and sent him into the wall at like 140mph? If it wasn't for his roll cage who knows. Watch for yourself..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDesHbZGcJI IT HAPPENS!

thats crazzy :S makes me think twis

Oath it should make you think twice....

will see wat happens man might change them how much r good rods and how mutch power they handel

Stock rods are supposed to take around 350rwkw. Get yourself some Spool rods, you won't break them.
