What are the advantages of H-Beam rods over stock rods in a 2.0L motor? I know the H-Beams are lighter and stronger but in terms of performance what are the advantages of using the lighter rods?

They are better by being lighter and stronger. Depends on what your after.
I had a race 2.0 with lightened stock rods and 130-135 hp. It wasn't cost effective to use H-beam rods in hat one. But to go to 8,000 rpm I would. Depends on the application |
