Nothing generally wrong with Eagle rods .. I have them in a little Ford Windsor 331 turbo with 483 RWKW..Used similar rods in a Mazda MX6/ 2.5 V6 with turbo, made the motor near bullet proof..
The 1UZ I've built has Argo rods through group purchase way back..
Yes they go ok
Only thing is , you want to increase wall thickness in high hp applications on small end
Options of sbc rod , with a ground undersized big end to 2.00 give more bearing options and bigger small end diameter
