LS rods in Dseries block
I would like wat modifyin would ned to b done and is there any clearance issues??Lot of ppl talk bout shot peening ur stock rods wat does it do??You think tis setup will hold up wit 100shot wit forged piston n LS rod
I know tis is a different question but is a 90-91 SI cam same as a DX cam?would it fit any D series block n any gains?

Re:LS rods in Dseries block
the rod theory can be done at any local machine shop. some say dont do it and others like me think why not?
its not a bad idea. the up side is that its less weight so it takes less for them to move around. I think its got something to do with enertia. 2nd they are a bit beefier (sp) than your stock rods so i guess its better in that sense.
good luck and i'm not sure about the cam profiles on the dx and SI. you would either have to measure the cam lobes on it or do some more research on the subject.
