Re:LS rods in Dseries block
 

fitting the ls rods in a d-series isnt a problem, you need to resize the journal end, and use aftermarket pistons. Stock pistons and the ls rods aint gonna happen.

Re: LS rods in Dseries block
 

if you are going to buy forged pistons go ahead and get forged rods, I think the rods are more important anyway. I learn bad by being cheap, now I am rebuilding again and I just finish the build. I did not bore over my clinders after I discovered scoring, now I am burning ouil bad, I had to order another set of oversize pistons to do it again, my head gasket cost me $150 and the rod bearings cost me 280 euros so dont be half ass. I know its a different situation but it will turn out the same results. do it right the first time you wont have to do it twice.

dude... i had about $1000 in my si a6 engine and i went with shot peened rods and i busted the #3 rod and spun a bearing ------ up the whole engine. now after two blocks and about $2000 im in for the next engine and i will by aftermarket rods and arp bolts to hold them. so when im slammin thru gears and redlining i know my piston , rod combo is not failing. its well worth the extra $200-$300.

why the ---- does no one have a problem with people throwin around the n bomb like its all good? i will be the first "------" to tell you that i dont appreciate that ---- at all, especially coming from that peckerwood cracker. i can give a good guess as to why no one says anything, but that doesnt make it alright for the mods to not do their job and moderate threads.
