I think what everyone is trying to say here is that with the 400 rods (5.5) that the loads on the cylinder walls can get too high and cause a failure, of either the wall or the piston. Either one will be bad!
I've been looking/reading about this quite a bit- I have a perfectly good set of BB 6.135 rods, but I'm looking at building a 496 too. The recommended rod for that one is 6.385- and from what I've read, it's pretty much all about cylinder loading.

I didn't know you could read.
So when is the 496 going to happen? Not that I'm in a hurry, but...... ok I am.
