My C7Z is new stock rods at the time with diamond pistons. I told LPE what I wanted to do and they said it would be fine. Sees 14psi at 3krpm and 24 degrees of timing by 3,500rpm. Peaks at 17.5psi and 26 degrees of timing.10k miles later she still rocking. Tune is dialed and is only DI only though. Loading the cylinder with meth or port injection AFR’s I’m sure wouldn’t help matters.
