Ls crank in a GSR????

im kinda sceptical about buying a swap w/ the Ls crank in a GSR bottom end; stock GSR rods and pistons. told it was a longer stroke. wouldnt that have a clearance issue? lmk thanx.

Re: Ls crank in a GSR????

they probably just said it has an ls crank... i dont think they would stroke it and not upgrade the internals...

Re: Ls crank in a GSR????

Ive always heard that you want to use rods that match the crank. I would assume that a longer stroke ls crank on stock gsr (longer than ls rods) would create some interferance

gsr rods on a ls crank won't work. And vice versa. But you can get them machined to work. The gsr rods are wider.
