Has any one put small jurnall chevy rods in with a 6 inch center to center. the crank would need to be turned to 2 inch on the rod's and some custom pistons with a compression hight of just overe 1 inch . or another way to go would be honda jurnal chevy rods 5.850 and have the crank stroke increasd to like 3.45 then you would have a 5 L engine .

K1 Technology will make up any size rod you can think of, if u know your piston compression height, your deck height, stroke then you can figure out what rod size you will need.

with the 6 inch chevy rod i think it works out to 1.045 compression height and ross will do the pistons for $825 and you can pick up a set of Scat H beam rods for about $400 just gota get the crank turned to small journal chevy maybe another $100 and the the crank should be ionitrideted
