- Fri Oct 01, 2010 5:35 am #216184 you can put gsr pistons in the LS, but you still need to use the LS rods. LS, GSR and B16a all have different length rods to along with the different strokes they each have.

- Fri Oct 01, 2010 6:28 pm #216269 Put the LS head on the motor. all you are doing is swapping pistons. Though I dont think you really want to put CTR pistons in a LS. The pistons will stick out of the block and you will have a CR of 13.1:1. Stick with B16a pistons. or even ITR or GSR.
