Hi Tadd,
I would personally do one of two things;
Continue to build the 2.8 as is with the parts you have. Nothing wrong with that build. The Ti rods may reduce the harmonics at the upper rpms. The problem with the 2.4-2.7 crank IS the width of the rod. The cross-section of the throws had to be thinner to accomodate.... as a result you get a flexy crank. Choose a cam that will be finished by 7500 rpm and you are set.
Sell the parts specific to the long stroke and focus on building the engine with the proper length rods, proper compression, etc.
Trying to fudge parts from one into another is an immediate compromise and you may be dissappointed in the result.
