ZCboost

I'm installing Eagle H beams into my ZC VTEC motor(D16Z6) and when we put the rods on the crank and tried to spin it over the rods are hitting the cylinder walls. A freind mentioned that we should have the rods grinded a bit to make them fit. I'm sure this will work, however I'm worried about the rods being out of balance after this. The H beams are thick *****, so i'm not worried about losing strength out of them since the highest boost I run is 8 psi at the track. Any thoughts on the grinding or anything else I can do?? Thanks.

To get eagle rods to fit in a D series, you need to notch the block

notch you block never grind down your rods. That will make them weak.

I'd say that notching you block would be your best bet also.
