Default Omega pistons with rods

Hi, just bought some RCM Omega pistons second hand from e bay they come fitted to lightened and balanced oe rods with ARP bolts, what power will the standard rods cope with? Im aiming for a low 400bhp build, will i require forged rods or will the oie be ok??

Thanks in advance...

Would be inclined to fit Steel Rods for 400 brake plus,no point in doing half a job with just the pistons - once they are fitted you have peace of mind.
You can alway put the std lightened/balanced rods back on fleabay to recoupe some of your money.
