Compression and rod length
What compression ratio is the ls1 have, and what are the rod lengths? I have seen some say 10:1 and rod length of 6.098", but have seen others say different. Is this true?

I have tried to search but it pulls everything up but the rod length, or I get different rods lengths. And I hate not having my glasses lol

Ok thanks. I am going for boosted w/ meth injection. Going to keep stock sized internals though, I just need to replace the pistons since one it damaged from dropping a valve.

Sorry for the wrong info i made a mistake. I was looking at the stroke length which is 3.622. For some reason i though the rod length was 6.22. I'll blame it on my glasses.
Sorry.
P.S. Maybe a higher power was telling me something, when the line was going through my letters when i was typing wrong info.
