No Bro, not directed towards you...sa'll good. The rods are a HUGE weak link. I ran a dry kit on my '01 for over 4 years with a 125 shot and a 150 shot every other Sat. night. I bumped it up to a 175 shot and broke #5 and #7 rod into 3 pieces.

 

Do you think the crank will hold it if I put rods in it?

 

Mine did. I was so surprised how cheap the rods were. I knew the pistons weren't really designed for alot of juice, but I have seen bigger rods in a Brigg's and Stratton lawnmower motor...LOL
