    Well my bad, lol, depending on what model he is selling, some can be used on the street. There is a serial number on the cap, phone GRP and they can tell you yay or nay.

    From what I've read, its how they are made and the material used.

    Don't you use yours on the street?

    I was looking for a part number last night and stumbled upon a Fiero build, he was using al rods and everyone told him NO for a street engine, so he posted up this. I called GRP today and they said depending on which model they are, they could be fine for a street engine.

    Yeah, I drive with mine on the street.

    I've never heard of different models for our engines.

    How comparable are BME to GRP?

    I have an autographed BME rod out of John Force's car hanging on my wall. Got it for my Dad for Father's Day last year and he decided it looked good on my shop wall!

    Honestly, I have no idea. You have GRP right?

    How much street driving do you do? They were fine last rebuild right?

    That's awesome, got a pic of it?

    I'm out of state now so I cant look at the Rods. I'm kind of having second thoughts on selling them now. But If there was someone serious about them I would still let them go.
