    And you make how much power??

    Anything under 400, run whatever motor you can find.

    I never hear of anyone snapping a rod or cracking one or anything like that. Either it knocks itself to death or the piston explodes.

    There is a thread on the Fiero Forums where a dude broke a rod in his turbo car while cruising down the interstate. He was making north of 500 whp though.
