Looks as though the rods are a bit smaller in overall diameter around the crank pin, giving a bit more clearance for those running stroker cranks. Please correct me if I'm wrong.



you cannot run a 5.7 inch rod with a 221 crank stroker.

If you can get the piston with a low enough pin height you could. Hate to think what forged 202 pistons with a 1.00" pin height would cost...
