tbird do some research online you well find the stock rods are forged. in both mustang and the Tbird. replacement part number's which you can get for like 30 dollars a rod at your local parts store say they are forged. the only reason i didn't get them cause A. my pistons were custom from summit and used a different size pin and i couldn't use stock rods. and B. i wanted a higher performanc rod.
but belive what you want....everyone tries to say things, but dont do the research.

A good friend of mine works in an engine shop, they have a turbo 2.3L apart, theyre building a 2.5L stroker and using an esslinger head. Explain to me how they have 4 cast rods sitting on the workbench from the original engine. Maybe you should research that.
