Yeah I'm more towards the torque ie around 620nm I've got wrc rods and pistons now the pistons are ok but the rods are knackerd and with proper wrc rods not being readily available anymore was just wondering if anyone has used another company and have they been ok?

Why are your rods knackered??

Personally i wouldnt want off the shelf H beam rods to be coping with 600+ torques!

Id go for I beam rods

If you want the best, get some Carillo's or similar

Certainly 620nm or even 620lbft wouldnt pose a problem.
