It would be worth your while to get the degree wheel out and actually check what was done - there is reason here to suspect the veracity of that video. As to the rods; 6.200" is 6.200", regardless of whose make they are. Check with the piston mfgr. also and find out their recommendations on what they were designed for, lift-clearance-wise. They can tell you a good ballpark number based on compression height of the piston and relative position within the block - example, if the block is zero-decked (top of piston flush to deck), then piston would provide adequate clearance for a lift of 0.XXX".
