Icon3 D15B7 Vitara build with eagle rods?

Im getting my block bored out because it was out of round and i got 76mm Vitara Pistons. I have heard mixed thoughts about using vitara pistons with the B7 motor because it ends up with like 6.8:1 CR.

I ran into the problem where the pistons were .100 shorter then my stock pistons....i believe this is because the pistons are technically for a D16. The rods on the D16 are longer then the D15 rods.

I was wondering if getting Eagle rods will solve my problem. The Eagle rods are 5.394 inches. Stock B7 rods are 5.279 inches. So this should solve my problem correct? Or will the rods hit the side of block just like all the other rods?

Thanks for any input.
