i have a set of manley gsr rods i picked up can i use these rods in my ls block with a ls crank?

if not can i switch out the ls crank to a gsr crank and use the rods?

 

No you can't use those rods in the ls block. they will be to short. and i think if you put the ls crank in the gsr motor you will have to long of stroke causing your pistons to hit your valves. NOT GOOD.

 

Stop spreading missinformation.

All B18 blocks are the same height.
Yes you can switch the LS crank for a GSR crank and use the rods.

b00sted-Hatch, you probably want to quit now.

Please read what Semnos wrote, then try again. Kthnxbye.

 

You should really do some research before you start making post about stuff. You even said you "THINK" its to short. You should have stopped right there. And just to verify to the original poster you can use those gsr rods in a ls block as long as you run the gsr/type r crank with it. Personally, I would try to trade those gsr rods for ls ones for the extra displacement.

 

to the OP if you are running a GSR crank then its no big deal. Now if your running a LS crank then its a no go because with the LS crank and GSR rods it will cause the rods to be to long. you will need to use LS rods with the LS crank and GSR rods with a GSR crank. Unless you are running a deck plate, then that’s a whole different ball game there.

so basically to answer your question: No you cant not use them with the LS crank but yes you can with the GSR crank

and yes a GSR crank will fit in a LS block

 

you can use gsr rods as long as you use a gsr crank. and yes it will fit in a ls block.

boosted-hatch the only block in the b-series thats not the same hight is the b16 and you can still use an ls/b20 or gsr crank in it but with a shorter rod. so in the end all b-series parts are somewhat interchangable.

 

thanks for the answers guys.

well the people that helped at least

just for clarification, b16a and b17 blocks are shorter than the regular b's. b16b's share the b18c block.

pwned I would not have posted again either. Stay away and go read some books.
