The rods aren't the problem, the pistons usually are. You can work around the problem by bending, twisting, and/or shaving as necessary.

If you're using Eagle rods, it's a safe assumption you're using aftermarket forged pistons. If that's correct, then you don't need the oil squirters.

The squirters still help regardless if the internals are forged or cast. I try to keep squirters whenever I can.

The biggest issue you'll run into is the pistons probably aren't clearanced for the squirters.

Look at the stock pistons and replicate the clearance on the forged pistons. I've seen people do it with a dremel tool. Just break any sharp edges, you won't effect the strength of the piston.
