H22a Rods...

I am currently building my spare JDM H22a for N/A. For the rods I was going to take the stock ones and have them balanced and shot peened. Will these be able to handel an 8500 RPM redline? The crankshaft will also be balanced. The rods will be fitted with over-sized Type S pistons. From what I've heard/seen the Skunk2 Stage2 cams make power up to/past the 8500 mark (Skunk2 will not give me a direct answer) So I'm building the bottom end up as these are the cams I will be using. Thank you for any input.

-Mike

What rods would you recommend John? I don't mind shelling out extra cash if its going to make my engine last/perform better.

What about the eagle rods? They're not so expensive, and are lightweight/good quality.

I was looking around and Eagle rods can be had for under $350 for the set .. how are these? Also looked at Crower Rods, were about double Eagle's .. worth it? Any modification need to be made in order to use O.E. pistons on aftermarket rods? Thanks.
