BOP Racing

Intake stack in the making.
So when nitrous decides to backfire, there's no plenum to blow out. Little hiccup and back in business.

Rods:

This is where things get complicated.
LV3 is Off-center motor (Buick guys will understand the meaning) so LS rods are NOT the ones to start with. SBC rods are!

What You'll need is a set of rods for SBC, then you do need to mill down the big end width to fit within the split-crankpin measurements.

As of bearings, no, SBC, LT, LV3 etc will not work. LS ones are too wide, SBC also, LV3 has different tab. The ones that will work are from is GM V6 from the '80-s. the tabs are correct, width is fine etc.
