With an ls crank and rods in a stock gsr engine, what pistons would clear maybe p30's? Is the deck height the same or would I have to find some shorter rods? Can someone post the measurements of both rods? How much would it mess with my rod to stroke ratio? Your help is greatly appreciated.

 

you can use ls rods and crank in a gsr block , the deck heights are the same

with what pistons? gsr's perhaps...

 

im just curious, why would u wanna put ls bottom end in a gsr block? but ya i think it will fit

 

you should use b16...the drop right on with no mods....gsr/type R pistons, the rod small ends need to be shaved

I already have the gsr block and head.

 

oops i mean the pistons....they go onto the ls rods with no mods, you allready have the p30s?....also upgrade the rod bolts on the ls rods

 

im curious too in why you would do this?

 

longer stroke makes more torque, and whats going to stop it from reving high like it did before? theres no mechanicle factor holding it back.

 

the rod bolts on the ls rods are weak and wont last long under the abuse of reving like a gsr engine....so you replace them so they can handle the abuse

 

already planing on using arp head and rod studs.

 

kool,,,,good luck on the build, im in the process of building a ls all motor, just need to get the time to put it together...lol

 

I know someone who is selling a FULLY built ls head for a good price. It is really FULLY built.. IM me on aim if you're interested.

i see

But I believe the oil squirters need to be machined for the stroke of the ls crank. Wouldn't know never done it. But why go with stock honda stuff? Going through the trouble throw a good set of pistons and rods in the and abuse the **** out of it.

 

never knew you could do ls/vtec that way
