Stimmel1647545512 Posted February 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 well shouldnt we be able to know since the block has stock ford pistons in it? im almost positive these are the rods in that block http://www.jegs.com/i/Eagle/356/SIR5090FP/10002/-1 Rob pm me how much you would charge me to take that block apart and make sure its all good to go and if these pistons in question will work ill buy them and put them back in it they come with new wrist pins and rings as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
