Conn rods

It seems that the only difference in the 2.7 and 3.0 SC rods is the thickness of the large end. The 2.7 rods are a bit over 23mm thick (side to side) and the SC rods are in the 21.7-21.8mm range. The rods that I have measure 21.76mm so the should be perfect in an SC based engine. The small end is bushed and honed for a 22mm piston pin and the overall length is the same for both models. The rods that I have weigh in at:
1 702 grams
2 702 grams
3 702 grams
4 703 grams
5 704 grams
6 702 grams

The factory delta for a rod set is a max of 9 grams so these should be fine. All they need now is a new set of rod bolts and nuts.
