I'd go with aluminum rods, no need for titanium rods @ 1300hp.
Titanium valve train I would go with (locks, keepers, valves, etc).
With the service you will be performing on that motor and the intervals in which you will be doing so (very regularly) I don't really see the benefit to the titanium rods..
Lightweight billet crank, alum rods, custom forged pistons, titanium valve train.. you'll be golden..
Can I borrow a signed blank check?
New question: Billet Aluminum vs. Billet Steel vs. Billet Titanium. Which do i go with? I need the strength to hold a possible 1300+ rwhp on 30-35psi, and the weight (or lack thereof) to rev to 8500+ (that's more of a hope, not a necessity. i like the sound of winding an engine up that high
)
