Most of the strokers have come as Lunati's 4" stroker kit. This comes with Lunati's Pro Mod rod, if I recall correctly, which is a great value. You can always go fancier for either less weight or more strength, but i dont hear of 382s bending rods or breaking rod bolts much.

I am using Carrillo 6.125" Rods. They have a .927" pin hole and the big end is 2.00". They have the "multi-phase" material rod bolts.
