    While it is true that PM rods are stronger than the OEM pink rods, the bolt is the weak link. I would highly advise replacing the stock rod bolts and having them resized before putting them in your engine. I would still feel more comfortable with forged H-beams at 7000 rpm, but that is my own personal opinion. Ignore the obnoxious message. Most of us on these forums are more interested in sharing our expertise with others.
