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.

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 ***. 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.
