Ha ha...thanks! The center oil hole design is identical to the GMC Jimmy rods, and works well to get pressurized oil to the wrist pins, and also sprays the underside of the piston crown to cool it. That can be a big bonus if using forced induction to help keep piston temps down. Getting a lighter weight piston if possible will help reduce strain on the rods, and could help offset the increased load you will be putting back on them with the turbo or blower. It would be nice if you could find some ARP quality rods bolts from another engine that you could swap into your rods. That would make me feel more comfortable than anything.
