Any info/review on Crower Billet I-Beam Rods?

[DSMDEMON93]

Hey everyone, has anyone ran the Crower Billet Steel I-Beam rods in any of their 4g63 motors? I came across a set I want for my 6 bolt, but I have heard nothing about them, only that from what I see, they are more expensive than the "infamous" Manley "Turbo Tuff" I-beams. Any thoughts? Preferences? Known reviews? Faults? Anything will be appreciated!

No one has ran a Crower I beam setup?

They are american made billet I beams that should be inspected by a professional for roundness and proper housing bore size. If those specs check out they should be fine

Thank you Viperlp01, okay, I really want to buy them for a Dyno queen setup, shooting for 750awhp, I'm guessing torque would be around 500 number. I just hope the made in USA factor will result is quality and longevity.

They were used on higher horsepower builds for the 4g63. They've been past 1000 awhp. I believe it was Dave Bushur, who said to check them for roundness.

Ah okay, it's good to hear information like this, I've searched for days on end trying to find any bit of info. Thank you!

No, problem. Look at some of some of the fastest times pages, or dyno pages. Anything, before 2006 and if they were making power. It more they likely, where on those Rods. On youtube, type in brad brooks 42r. That 1k plus 2g had those rods in it, @ 54 psi I believe. Rich Glorriso, used them aswell.10.2 @147 was hit best time with a gt40.
