Also the reason I want forged rods is that from what I have read on the site about the forged rods is that they are stronger and lighter than the stock items.I have lightened the fly wheel and crank a good deal so I would rest easier with forged rods.


as ddgonzal said in his post before you wrote this, the stock conrods are forged.
there are plenty of high output A15s which use the factory conrods.

Okay so I will stick with the stock rods as they are more than enough for even the most powerful NA A15 motors.So should I get the forged flat top pistons then??????My A15 is near new so the bore is in amazing condition just like the rest of the motor so I was thinking of getting the pistons in the standard 76mm bore but with the compression at a healthy 10.5-1

in my opinion:
for an all out racing engine, get forged pistons.
for a roadgoing engine, save some money and use cast pistons.
