Default Rods Question

Ordered some rods last night for my 5.3 build. Well I might have a lead on a 6.0 block.

Question #1 - can I use 6.100 size rods in the 6.0 block?

EAGLE H-BEAM ROD:6.100-LS1 (927 PIN) (SET) CRS6100L3D.

Question #2 - What is the stock LQ4 rods and pistons good to Horse power wise with boost? Supposedly it's all ARP hardware on the bottom.

Thanks,
Jordan

6.100 (well technically 6.098) rods come in all 6.0s, so yes you can use those as a stock length replacement.

People have had good luck with up to about 600rwhp, but I would still use some forged rods and pistons in it if you have it apart.
