The Z1 uses different rods. LS aren't gonna fit. Y7 will though.

A6 bearings are apparently different. Or at least I ordered ACLs for an 88-91 Si from autohauzaz and got some labelled with the 85-87 Si part number which I forget offhand. Not PE7, but close. Ended up getting LS units, sweet perfection.

Good to know, but Crower made the bushings for me. About $10 each. I have no way of machining them.

Re: LS Rod Swap.... How To

Any updates? ^

I think I might attempt this build. LS rods are cheap. I have access to machine equipment to do the machining and I have a set of used Vitaras which I got for cheap. So this build will be right up my alley.

Can anyone recommend where to find the silicon brozne stock, or if anyone makes the bushings?

I'm waiting for a response from Crower. I asked if they can still make the bushings.
