aded together = 6.799
subtract gsr crank 3.433/2= 1.717
total new rod length = 5.082" rod
which gives you a r/s ratio of 1.48

If you're going to run a GSR or an LS crank in a B16 block, run GSR or LS rods and a custom piston. Custom pistons from CP are about 100 dollars more than a shelf stock piece, and take anywhere from 3 days to a week extra to make. Custom rods from Eagle are around 400 dollars, or double, the price of a shelf stock rod, and take anywhere from 4-6 weeks extra to make. For the price of his short rod, stock piston monstrosity he could almost have the LS/GSR crank with a set of eagle titanium rods and the custom pistons, it just doesn't make sense.
