I've been looking at the Olivers , nice US made but a bit pricy . I don't think this is a good place to skimp though if your looking for endurance . What would be your second choice Mike ?

i have used the eagle with arp2000 bolts in 1000 hp builds but for me,OLIVER.the scat is the same price&quality as the eagle.manley is not a bad rod either.maybe one of the pro,s will chime in on this one.

Pretty much all the lower priced rods are Chinese forgings, eagle, scat, etc... Think about what the most common cause of catastrophic failures is, the ones that trash everything, and then ask yourself if good rods are really that expensive.
