I know folks are building bottom ends for high boost. Forged pistons, providing lower C/Rs, are common fodder. Forged rods are common, too, but what about the length of these aftermarket wonders? Are they the same length as OEM rods, or are they longer/shorter to change torque and/or HP output in and of themselves? Has any research/experimentation been done in this regard?

Thanks.

Stroke is maintained with the aftermarket rod/piston combos. You go to the AEBS stroker kit with low compression and FI if that is the direction you want to go. There are a few AEBS blocks on the board and 1 or 2 with the stroker kits as well.
