Default B16 Block/Crank Ls/c1 Rods/Pistons?

Is it possible to use Ls/C1 rods and pistons safely in a B16 block with a B16 crank?
Don't need any [freak]ed up answer or smart *** comment just a honest answer please

r/s x stroke= rod
1.74 x 77.4 ~ 134.68

1.56 x 87.2 ~ 136.02


The b16 block is shorter than the LS and it has shorter rods... looks like u'r pistons will be sitting out of the hole about 2 mm (guestimation). Maybe custom piston with the pin moved up would work.

IDK if the gsr rods have the same BE width as the B16 rods though..

Even with a B16 crank it would still be too long?

Straight from Eagle...
B16a Rod Length - 5.290"
LS Rod Length - 5.394"
GSR rod Length - 5.430"

LS would be the closer one BUT.....

.104" = 2.64 mm higher than the normal B16 piston position

damn I was close...

c-speed calculator has the stock B16 piston as .020" under the deck. with the LS rod u will be .084" out of the hole and the OEM 3 layer headgasket is only .029" so i think the piston will hit the head....c-speed says 14.5:1 compression with b16 pistons (6 cc dome LOL)
