piston and rod recommendations?

do what do you think about JE pistons and Eagle rods?
if not, then what is a good set to use. JE and Eagle are going for a decent price. I wondering why you can find that combo for so cheap...

I like JE pistons but i would not choose Eagle rods. I know someone who had an eagle rod snap at high RPMs. To say the least it screwed up his engine.

a little off topic, but i was just wondering, what type of after market cam gears do most of you guys running? there is just so much out there, like hks, apexi, ats, aem, etc. what cams are the best in terms of going 350-400 hp.

Re: piston and rod recommendations?

what about wiseco pistons w/ crower rods
i dunno... i plan on only pushing around 300 to 350 hp if a rod is rated at 500+ do you think that 300 to 350 is safe for daily driven... i still want the reliability...
