I think you are going to run into some big issues here.

B20/LS rod length 5.394"
b18C Rod Length 5.433"

so that means your piston is going to be going .039" Higher than if you used the right Rod.

IF you wanna run the GSR rods then just get a GSR crank

that combination will get you a 9.9 cr with the pistons sticking out of the block .006".

IMHO not worth it. you can get a higher CR by changing pistons instead of the rods. but while your at it you might as while change out both rods and pistons.

use this to play with different combinations
