I've heard that H beams resist twisting better than I beams, that's the only advantage I am aware of. I'm running a set of Eagle H-Beams with ARP fasteners, of course I'm less than 800hp so no problems. I had them checked thoroughly and they were dead on, on all dimensions.

H-beam will twist under detonation as the piston moves from tdc as an I-beam will not due to the I-beam design.

I didn't know there was mountains in Illinois. Do you consider yourself a "mountain billy"?
