(snip) The only question now is one that JV brought up about the width of the big end of the rod.

The width of the big end of a BBC rod is 0.995 according to my source. I don't know what the width of one of the 7.100 rods measure. A Packard rod I have handy measures 1.050. As to whether this difference will be a problem or not, I'll have to check. If someone gets serious about this rod/piston combination, then exact measurement of everything would be in order.

If this combo does work, the rods will outlive 3 engines.
