I'm using a set of Scat small journal (2.00) SB Chevy 6.125 long H beam rods in a mild 360 offset ground stroker motor I'm making to sell up
I need to get the block rough bored and order the pistons for that project and get it done wrench

Eagle H-beam, 6.123 IIRC. Bought 'em many years ago.
Been 7500 regularly & several times 8000, zero issues ever.

Two sets of Compstars here, my 434 has 2.00 X 6.200 and my 408 had 2.100 X 6.125, No issues with either set.

I have run 6 inch Molnar rods with good results with 1.88 rod bearings.

I am running 6 inch Carrillo rods now. Custom for 1.85 crank, so far so good.

Wont find many that arent running a longer rod. Standard is 6.123
Many run 6.200, 6.300 stuff.
I ran 6.300 Compstars on the only ultra serious build i have had, very nice units. Cheap Callies

Which big end journal size are you going to be running? What Stroke? How much RPM do you intend on running?
You might need to look at a Carillo or something similar.
The Callies Compstar or Molnar stuff is nice for more budget friendly stuff.
