Bad data in the Summit ad.

Maximum stroke with OE rod is stated at 4.125. Ever see an FE OE rod in a 4.125 stroked engine? Me neither. Maybe some guys were doing it back in the 60s but not anymore. All of the common strokers use a BBC rod and that pan will clear a 4.25 stroke without a problem... The pan companies all use a factory clone steel oil pan and then cut it to fit the sump chosen.
