S Squid4life Well-Known Member Joined Jul 5, 2004 May 23, 2005 #2 Do a search for most info on 3.8 vs 4.1, I even posted the same question a while back. The rods are the same as long as they are 2 dot rods. Try not to use the three dots, as they are for naturally aspirated (non-turbo) motors. And, welcome to the board bro! Squid
