Default Any ideas on possible 422 build??

I just got a hold of a used Agostino resleeved ls1, with 4.100 -6cc Ross pistons & also looks like new Lunati Pro billet 6.200" rods. I want to start prepping the block & use these parts but of all the stroker short blocks ive seen they all use 6.125 rods, does anyone know why??

Can I go ahead & use these rods without worrying about PTV clearnace too much. Currently I have a 383 stroker with PRC stge 2.5 heads 2.04/1.57 heads & a ported Fast 90 intake with NW throttle body & Ford Racing 30# injectors. This would pretty much be my proposed set up for this project. I am aware there are probably better combinations; but does anyone see any major problems with this one??? Any help would be greatly appreciated...

If its like mine was and most other ARE builds, they are probably pro-mod 6.125" rods. Do the rod bolts say lunati? Do the rods say lunati?

What part number is on the piston? I'd call and get the blueprints so you can see what they were set up for. ARE did some pretty shotty work at times, so I'd cover all bases.
