Default LS1 connecting rods floating? 6.098" Ideas?

My builder is looking for some floating connecting rods at stock 6.098 length for my diamond pistons. He wants a complete set of 8. All I can find is Scat and K1. Anyone know of anyone else? The engine is being rebuilt and he does not want to use press fit rods on an A & A vortech build. I also posted this in the FI section but figured I would get more reads here
Thanks

He didn't want to use them. He wants to use floating GM rods but cant find any. He doesn't like the K1's he has an engine in there with one broke now. I am only going to be around 600 - 650 rwhp so I would think both would be fine. He was at PRI show last few days and was going to hunt for something.

IDK I'd take an aftermarket rod over a stocker any day (for the most part).
