Default prelude crank in b18a question?

I have a prelude crank from a h21, i believe. This crank ahs been made ready to put in a b18, but i need the size of rods to get so there will be no clerance issues. I know they will have to be a custom length but i was wondering what that lengh is?

take it to a machine shop, tell him you're crazy and you have a crank from another motor and you want it put in your motor with rods to fit, then hand him the crank, kick him in the nuts, and tell him good luck for inspiration.

Height of the block from centerline of crank to head gasket surface - compression height of piston - half of stroke = rod length (zero deck height)
