    well i will add to this. longer rod are not to big of a deal . were you will see a longer rod is for more counter weight on the crank that helps get the mass were you want it with out a lot of heavy metal nailed in to the crank .some times you just can not get the rod you may want to work with out a very short piston with a very short CH . all this has a bit of what your going to do with the engine.one engine i am working on has a 7.680 rod
