Default Forged H-Beam Rods on D16.. need to modify something?

Again some of my stupid questions:
I am looking for some H-Beam forged rod, maybe TunerToys, but I have heard thet there is some problem with a block clearance. The Engine is D16Z5 (EDM something like a ZC DOHC NON VTEC).
Does anybody have some pictures of this modification??

Thank you!

Not exactly sure about your engine but some D series need block notching when fitting Eagle H beam rods.
Here is a link that may help http://www.theoldone.com/artic...tips/

So is it safe to do it like this just some grinder and thats all?

Buddy of mine had to notch the block to fit these rods.

you have to notch the block, and the girdle, the bolts will not clear the girdle, the newer eagle rods are not that bad, but a little bit needs to be shaved off of the block as well, just use a dremel.
