just like the title says. i have an ls block, and a 95mm crank. i would like to keep the ls r/s ratio of 1.54. how tall of a deck plate will i need, and do any companies make off the shelf rods for this? if not, what rod length would i need with what deckplate size. thanks.

 

dont need deckplate you can use a longer rod and have the piston compression height offset to get back close to 1.5ish r/s ratio

 

What do you think of raised wrist pin height pistons for street motors, cheetah?

there are different versions of "street" like dauly driver or weekend car with few races, etc.

anyway, for my street car which I drive a few times a week plus race on weekends, I use a 92mm crank and offset Endyn pistons and it works great. I wouldn;t recommend too much offset, however cause the rings just take a lil more beating, so for a 95 crank i wouldn't do a full street car daily driver.

1.54 R/S works good. I know of a racer that has a 92mm crank and 1.54 r/s.

 

i was pretty set on 95mm, but maybe i should sell the 95mm and get a 92mm. so 92mm with an offset pin piston could be daily driven?

yeah i use the 92mm setup in my street car ... there is a thread on the motor build with dyno charts ... I run it with 93 octane on the street and its only 84.5mm bore
