All aftermarket z6 rods should fit stock pistons, but why? I'd say get a set of eagle rods (I've seen them as cheap as $275 a set) and a set of SRP pistons (Also around $250-$275 a set), and do them both. You'll be much happier in the long run. I got Crower rods (the good ones) and Arias low compression pistons for $400 new. Right place at the right time.

saw some eagle rod going for 350
but AFAIK most of the aftermarket rod does not accept press-type pin..
dude 500 for both rod and piston would be good deal but where?...
$wise....

long as you dont knock to much the stock rods can take the pressure.

You could use stock integra Ls rods. They will handle 12-14
pounds and you can get them for cheap.
