Hey all.
I have a fully rebuilt B20 with an F head. Im starting to think about some future modifications to increase power to a pretty high level with a supercharger, megasquirt, variable timing, some head porting, and a new cam. Looking at the power and torque numbers Im hoping to make, Ive become concerned with the strength of internals. Ive heard multiple opinions, that all 8 bolt cranks and rods are cast and that 6 bolts are forged, or that only penta are forged, or that everything was cast. Anyone know for certain? If they are cast, should I get forged rods? Hoping to make around 300HP atc.
