his problem is that the numbers arent close enough together. your problem is that the numbers are a bit low. different problems.

LS are good for 300, and B16 are a litle bigger, so i would think they could handle mid 300s

heres a side by side, LS on left, B16 on right. B16 are noticeably bigger:

Does anyone have a side by side comparison like the pics above...but with d-series, b-series, h-series...etc.

IMO it would be awesome.

no H series, so this is the best i could do

PM7(ZC) - PR4(LS) - PR3(B16)

Id personally feel completely comfortable rocking B16 rods to 350whp of daily beatings.

the goal is 375whp, so I'm shooting for 400 after the build and new setup.
