LQ9 Aftermarket Rods/Pistons Hi guys,
Im on a budget. Ive got the lq9 engine and just want to get her running till i can buy a complete 4XXci shortblock. I was going to stroke it but this motor has less than 15k miles on it, and everything looks perfect.
My question. what rod-piston combo would you recommend for a turbo application with the stock 317 casting heads. I want to keep the stock crank for now since the stroker blows the budget away for my FAST XFI. i obviously dont want to use the stock rods-pistons since the lq9 has the higher compression already.
TIA for any info!
