is my bottom end gonna hold up???

ok, i have a standard bore 98 350 engine i ordered a while back, it was built with flattop 4vr lt1 hypertectic pistons, lt1 powdermetal rods, and a factory cast crank, the deckheight is stock, i have 64cc heads on it now i think comp is around 10:1 mebe,lol

my question is, is this gonna hold up to 6700rpms? the car is setup to run a 100shot at the strip, ive heard horror stories about pm rods scattering

i have a 1piece 88 350 i built for an imca car, its zero decked, .30 2vr forged pistons, 4340 rods, and a factory forged crank, would i be better to swap my cam heads and intake on this shortblock? both engines are balanced
its gonna run on 93 pump. will the comp be tooo high with the .30 0 deck engine?

A 100 shot should be no problem.If you check out the LS1Tech forums in the nitrous section there are lots of people running 150RWHP shots (.062 nitrous jet) without issue.Just keep a close eye on your tune and plugs and watch for signs of #7 and 8 cylinders running lean.
