Dave: No surprises there Toyota's metallurgy has always been great, my point is unless you buy a new set from Toyota you're dealing with 15+ year old rods with an unknown history so it becomes a ? mark on a high hp build.
Snapped/ bent rods
- Thread starter quake
- Start date
yeah thats true. i know the history of mine since it was a brand new short block from toyota in shrink wrap 
buying a supra these days i wouldnt even think of doing a high hp build without taking everything apart for inspection. unless i had another motor ready to go in its place.

NOT a 7M but here's a BBC one I prepared earlier
