Over carburated? No. Cast rods and teenage drivers? YIKES!! Really a cast rod is ok for street use. I take my 400 to 5800 and have for many years even with GM rod bolts. ARP's are a good idea as well as polishing the sides. If you put in new rod bolts you will need to re-size the big end of the rod. If you grind the side beams you should re-balance the rotating assembly. Jim Butler once told me an Arma Steel crank will hold hard chrome better than a nodular unit but the strength factor is the same. Good luck and maybe you should install a rev limiter!!!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
