golden eagle sleeved gsr block
 
i just picked up a golden eagle sleeved gsr block .5 overbore from a buddy. he does not have a crank for it. i have eagle h beams for an ls and a running lsvtec. so can i use the ls eagle rods and stock crank with a gsr block and build a strong motor 500hp with the ls crank?
i know the ls rods are longer and the stroke is 2mm more on the ls crank, so could this actually be stroked gsr in a way?

or should i sell the ls rods and just build a gsr? also if the eagle ls rods work ok then what wiseco pistons should i go with gsr or ls? its going to be a turbo motor looking for ability of 500hp.

Many actually started using the gsr block with ls crank/rods. They did it for the gsr oil squirters, and over time those have been discovered to be worthless when dealing with forged pistons anyway. There's no difference between the pistons, it's all in the crank/rods. I would just put all the ls ---- into the sleeved block and do that.

thats what i thought, i just wasnt sure if there would be girdle clearance issues or anything using the ls crankl. has anyone one here used on of the golden eagle cranks? ive herd the stock honda one would do fine.
