Lunati Pro-Mods or ...

At what FWHP (RWHP?) for a Forced Induction LT1 motor would you step up from a Lunati Pro-Mod rod to something better? What rod would you step up to? Thanks in advance for any responses.

I'm running the Pro Mods in mine and they are living with 22+#s and a 100 shot. I have hit with bigger but I run that on the track. lets just say I make over a 1000 at the crank. So in my opinion you don't need more Rod unless your doing something really crazy.

Jeff, do you have a website or details on your car?

BTW, I chose the pro-mods, too, and was vary happy with the clearances during the build. I think a big issue with rods is RPMs more than just torque. The forces on a rod increase exponentially as RPMs go up.
