i am in the midst of building an 18 hp oppy. splash lube. not a puller or racer just a kick my brother (you know what) around the yard. i have an 18 hp in my suburban and it needs a little more. i have a set of heads and cam from a 20 hp oppy and wanted to know if the stock rods with the oiling mods would last. not going over 4k rpm. the intake ports will get massaged out a little but other than that its gonna more or less be stock. so will it last or will i have to shell out all kinds of money on those arc rods ?
