what rods to use?
I'm putting together a 350 that will be putting out around 450 hp ( I hope) so I want to upgrade the rods to maybe a eagle sir or a scat. Any advice on what rod to use? Thanks

There is not a lot of difference between the Eagle SIR and the SCAT I-beams. Both are forged in China and machined here in the states. Some say they like the finish on SCAT better, but I have Eagle SIR rods, and I didn't see any blemishes or imperfections. Either one would serve you well.

Another question, I was told this engine takes 6 quarts of oil. Is that correct? It's a remanufactured 350 with stock pan.
