    Will those rods and pistons do any good without a composite crankshaft? And think of the savings not having to balance a rotating assembly? That's a few hundred bucks back in your pocket right there. LOL

        Morbid curiosity caused me to call this place. They are serious about it.

          I can say that personally I wouldn't be a fan of using them even if they cost the same as a steel rod (lets say there is absolutely no issues with these) just for the fact me and a few others have fixed or vastly improved some drivability issues with engines with titanium rods just by replacing them.

            yep , we went that route one time billet , people dont realize how much a super light rotating assembly brakes the car off the throttle , takes a very seasoned driver with exceptional throttle control .....
