So as some of you may know I recently picked up eagle rods.

They're the "H beam" rods.

Rated to 750 HP.

Which looks like may be my new goal.

I've been reading a lot about pistons and from what I've read, I'm leaning towards the Wiseco 1400 HD's. With a 8.5:1 compression ratio.

Wondering if anyone here is running these, or has any advice for my first forged internal build. I do plan to find a shop for balancing of the rotating assembly including flywheel and clutch. But am having a difficult time finding a known trustworthy shop local to me to help with this. And while I'm at it, hopefully they can machine my head. A different topic altogether.

Interested in what you guys think...
