Are the rods in the GT500 forged Manley rods like in the old Cobra 4.6 engine?

no they are not
Are they forged powder?
IIRC the call them "cracked powder forged" they seem to hold up to 700whp pretty consistently.
no they are not
and wrong section
wait a sec ... are those really the GT500 rods?
they seem to hold up nice on the 725whp supersnakes or krs. Anything more than that is probably not intended for street use and thats probably why they are not as forged as manley, they made a pretty good part for standing that much power for the street.
I'm not real sure which is worse on this board. The Hot Rod cam threads or these fuckin GT500 connecting rod threads.
