LS2 Rod replacment Putting new rods into an LS2 motor due to a spun bearing. The crank will need to be machined... What aftermarket rods anyone recommend? this is just going to be a mild 224 cam build. I would like something as strong or stronger than stock and has a good price point.

A stock con rod with an ARP bolt upgrade will work plenty fine for now. An aftermarket H-beam style rods are getting cheaper and would be a good long term investment as well. But not to many people will go that route without putting a better piston/ring package on at the same time to.

Callies Compstar p/n CSC6100DS6A2AH
stock length 6.100 (basically), stock pin size
I used these on a stock crank LS2 and very happy. $436 if you call Callies direct, these are listed as 'overstock' so the price is good
