Stock rods? If so you got a good one and I agree about the tune. If you don't go crazy on the timing it will help along with setting your cam timing to bleed off cylinder pressure some
but if you go all out its another story....
Like I said in my first post I have friends pushing 500 hp and are living there tune is moderate
and then the guys that went all out with 350hp go poof
edit for the guys that are going to ask 500hp on E85 350hp pump gas because of E85 availability 500 drives with sense 350hp total hazard if on the same block
