On the early 2.5L engines. Maybe.
With how far the technology has come, not a chance. Period!
The same PM style rods support 600-700 wheel TQ in the new Ford diesels.
People indiscriminately claiming PM rods are weak just don't understand the technology and metallurgy behind them. In most regards they are superior to a standard casting of the same design. That's a fact of physics and not an opinion.

It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
