And 12, imo, is in the upper range of what I would consider a reliable setup with stock internals. Maybe you are lucky, who knows. All We know for sure is that someone else had rod failure at the same boost that you are running.

Someone also mentioned another failure, I wonder what boost he was running...
The amount of boost that's safe to run varies based on what is making the boost, right? 12 psi on a Stillen sc isn't the same airflow as 12 psi on a turbo kit. Maybe we need to look at cfm rather than boost.
