Question: are all ls engines the same size?
Answer: All LS rods are 6.098 inches in length except for the 4.8L truck engines and the LS7. The 4.8L rod is longer at 6.298 inches to allow GM to use the same compression height between the 4.8L and 5.3L even though, as we've seen, the 4.8L and 5.3L pistons are not the same.
