Ok which is the better stock connecting rod to use for a GT-6 engine that is 
being built for race . I have a set of perfect rods that came out of a 72 
Gt-6 . They do not have the relief hole drilled . I have lightened and 
polished per the Truimph tune manual plus a couple of other hints. I also 
have a set of late model Spit. connecting rods that I have started as a 
spare set . They have the reilief hole. I have two guys that I respect 
greatly telling me that one kind is bad to use and one kind is good to use . 
Unfortuately their opinions do not agree . One says the early rods are no 
good and the other guy says the late model rods break . I need more opinions 
before  I go any farther . Take in mind I do not have the money to buy 
aftermarket race rods . I have to use what I have.
Any and all opinions welcome as long as I do not have buy new rods.
                              Thanks
                               Andy
