Yeah I'm starting to wonder how tough they are. Here are some specs I found on them:

CONNECTING ROD
Piston Pin Bore Diameter=21.017-21.032mm (0.827-0.828in)
Crankshaft Bearing Bore Diameter=53.015-53.035mm (2.0872-2.0879in)
Length (Center to Center)=138.06-138.4mm (5.435-5.448in)
Twist = 0.050mm per 25 (0.0019 per 0.984in)
Band = 0.038mm per 25 (0.0014 per 0.984in)
Standard = 0.100-0.30mm (0.0039-0.0118in)
Service Limit = 0.35mm Max (0.0137in)

They probably don't mean much for strength but might be good knowledge for some people. Also we should see if buckshot77 can comment on the differnces between his forged Cunningham rods vs stockers.
