Well machining wouldn't be much of a problem, because I have access and can use a mill/lathe ect...

I've already got a set of Vitaras anyway.This setup interested me because I know how much of a difference there is in strength between LS, and B16 rods. Its just that you need a taller piston for the rod length difference, and a vitara won't do.

I'm considering doing a LS/vitara setup. I can mill the rod down easily. Does crower still make the bushing for the pin end? If not I'll have to make it.

I tried a few years back to get some of the crower bushings. I had no luck. I would suggest making your own if you have the skills and the gear to do so.
