There are a few shelf-stock 6.340" and 6.350" rods with no offset for the LSx stuff. What crank and piston (CD) are you going to run?

Have people been breaking the genIV rods? Do you require forged ?
If not, you can use stock 3.27" crank and stock 6.275" rods, with stock 1.331" ls2 pistons... The difference being +.001" over using the stock ls2 rotating assembly.
Or you can use some DSS 4.03" x 1.140" forged pistons and some eagle 6.460" forged rods. This puts you .005" below deck, and sets you up for a good quench using a .030" gasket. Puts you at a pretty fantastic 1.98 rod ratio, as well.

The 3.27" crank/6.46" rod/4.03" piston combination with some ls9 heads and a LSA blower is absolutely something I want to try. I think of it as my "quasi-COPO 328". And I plan on building it, even if I can only afford to use the oem rotating assembly parts.

There's a 6.35" rod available from callies, yes.
There is also a 6.35 available from Manley, for half the price of the callies.
But you're going to be hard pressed to beat the 6.46" eagles with the 4" x 1.140" dss pistons on the 3.27" crank.
