Not only NO BUT HELL NO, what are you running prostock? If you are running anything more than 2400lbs you want gain .01 with the change, plus you'll spend lots of money plus the cost of the rods. Tit. rods have no place in a bracket motor, unless you're running an all out index class where ever .001 counts, they are a waste of money.
