I didnt see this til now. At the time, using LBZ rods was a cheap alternative for a sub-600hp engine. I was right on the edge of safe with them, and the guys tried to talk me out of it, but I chose what I chose due to cost and time. Carrillos were just not in that budget.
Would I do the same today? Nope. There's decent reasonably-priced rod alternatives now. Use those.
