Powdered rods do just fine in GM applications. In fact, I have never heard of rods being a problem in LSX engines. They are good up to 550+ whp, at which point the pistons and compression ratio and other issues come into play.

Not arguing with you there. There is a 2011 Mustang 5.0 in the 9's already on the stock bottom end.
