Thanks Ryan, you are correct.

Here is a link to the rods in question. We have them for D, B, and H Honda Engines. Tuner Toys H Beam Rods

Block notching is easy, anyone with a die grinder / Dremel Tool can do it. Here are a couple of links to show you how easy it is.

Thanks for your purchase, and hope this info helps.
