You won`t know until you drop the crank in and do a mock up assembly. Since your using longer rods there`s the possibility a couple of rods will hit the cam lobes. You`ll want to shoot for .050 clearence between them.

If you're going to use the Manley Pro Series CapScrew I-beam rods they're identical to the Scat ProComp 2-ICR**** I-beams, they're stroker clearanced so they should clear the block. Always check clearance tho'. As for cam clearance I'd check with them to see if a small base circle cam will be needed.
