Go with new forged H beam rods. They can be lightened quite a bit. Even the best prepared stock rods have a very limited life in a race engine.
BY THE WAY, LOSE THE COPPER BRAKE LINES. Most racing associations will not allow them anyway.

Who can do a welded stroker in this area? Not sure what the cost would be, but seems very labor intensive. Cost maybe between a Moldex and an Eagle crank?
I am convinced to use H beam rods, so need to do some research on those.
I don't have copper brake lines, they are Ni-Copp, a Nickle/copper/iron alloy that is fuly DOT approved.
Thanks for info Pete
