no i did not say that ...rods you have to buy a custom crank that as no off set pin or very old 4.3 were like this .i think you could run the 350 rod in them your rods big end is big for the offset rod journal .i have used 350 pistons in them they are cheaper and i use the older 350 that do not use the thin 1.5mm 1.5mm 4.0mm or pistons rings i do this on the vortec 350 engines to .it saves abit on a rebuild
