I just picked up a new LS6 crank, and thought they had floating rods/pistons. When I reference the part number it shows it uses press fit pistons.
Any thoughts?

You are correct, the three I have are semi-floating. Remember, stock pin diameter is .945, aftermarket pistons JE, Mahle, etc. will be amchined for a .927 pin. So will an aftermarket rod.

Here's the strange thing; when I reference the part numbers with a LS6 crank, the part number shows a press fit piston pin, but the rod number references to a floating pin LS2 rod?????????????
I'm trying to figure out what rod/piston assembly I should use, as the 2 combo are different weights. I'm building a budget Fe LS2 (LQ9).

I've got a complete set of dimpled LQ9 rods with pistons out of a marine engine (Pleasurecraft). They need to be cleaned, but they have less than two hours on them.
