I can understand that, and you're absolutely correct....to each his own.
However, as an engine builder, I would rather not have to worry about a 40 year old rod failing. Even when magnafluxed, it's hard to account for the years of fatigue stress that the rods go through.
Would they work? They would probably work just fine. But if a bullet proof bottom end (for 500hp) is just within $200-300, that's a small amount over the cost of an entire engine build.
