They just might be salvageable as long as the johnson-rod has the proper length and torque.

Don't forget the width... If your johnson-rod has the proper length but not proper width...it won't work and can cause your chasis all kinds of problems and possibly leave ya high and dry...

I wonder if that will lower our power in the 5.0 what other thing can they put on this sucker to get it to pass emissions! there goes our 412HP Dyno 440 HP down too a true Dyno 400HP seems like all the editors in mags get to have fun with the version that the public cannot get! They got them before they had to go back and fix the car! I hope they don't do nothing to alter the power! Once again this is just speculation!
