If you can afford new rods, use them. If not a properly reworked set of LeMans will work fine with new bolts. I doubt that you will ever see 6,500 rpm with a stroker, yet alone 7,000 rpm which they will last forever at. This is speaking from experiance. As far as pistons go, JE is the way to go. They will make anything your builder wants for a reasonable price. Nobody makes anything better.
