Re:piston rod comparison pictures
You'll notice that the Ford and Chevy rods in those two "photos" (the second one is a collage, not an actual photo) are not the same. I think the Ford rod in the first one is the 7.3 and in the second is the 6.0 (but don't quote me on this). The Chevy rod looks pretty much the same in both but is missing the flat spot at the wrist pin end in the second "photo". It could be a crappy cut-and-paste job. I don't know for sure which engine the Chevy rod is from.
Nonetheless, even with all the back-and-forth I've seen about these two pictures, the Cummins rod is by far the beefier of the bunch.
