5.7" rods for my 400, which to get?
Hey guys. I am in the process of gathering parts to build my 406 bottom end. I got pistons for 5.7" rods. I am tempted to use stock 350 rods, but I don't really want to grind the rod bolts to clear the cam. So, what is a inexpensive, yet still good rod that will likely clear the cam without grinding and modification. Motor won't be wild, but will be decent. Thanks guys!!!
