Pay the money once and it will cost you less later...
we just broke a rod at about 1200hp and...broke the hamilton cam, one aries piston, hamilton extreme pushrods, bent valves in our hamilton head, block, crank...
it would have been cheaper to have had rods in it the forst time around
Sound like you have a lot of Hamilton parts
Why would high rpm make them last longer? I would think the more rpm the harder it is on them

Less torque.
As you can see that Jeremy had stretched one of his, and that is the trade off. Swinging a heavy piston at high RPM.
I'm gonna go with a set of CPP's hardened rods. Jamie says he's got them in a bunch if pullers and trucks over 1600hp without a failure so I think my sub 1000hp build will be fine. I plan to have ot tuned to keep the torque up higher.
