If you select the right brand and material of steel connecting rod, it will go that many runs down the track. One of the biggest factors in longevity is to select the correct rod bolt. My preference is also an "I" beam over the "H" beam style of rod. The steel rod will also allow you to run a tighter deck since they don't stretch like Aluminum rods do. Pro Stock and many Comp guys are currently running steel rods successfully.
Some of the companies I would recommend are Carrillo, Crower, R&R and Oliver. I good set of steel rods from these vendors will not cost you $3000.00 to $4000.00.
