Well i am building a turbo d16 motor from my research a20 rods are the same as ls rods but they have a 19mm wrist pin just like d series pistons and from what i read they are a little more beefy than the ls rods so yea im wondering if anyone has pics so i can see what they look like Thanks

i really dont think the ls rods are that much stronger, the reason why guys go to LS rods is because its a drop in replacement for a20 rods when guys go with bigger wrist pin sizes with forged pistons.

yeah the eagle rods are a good alternative choice...plus they are cheap
