The stroker cranks with the SBC rod pin use a standard SBC rod.

you should be able to fit a 3.75 stroke crank. But you want to make sure there is plenty of clearence. Your engine builder will check everything when he assembles the motor.

Re: stroker crank ?

Make sure you are understanding what a SBC rod pin journal is. Most ppl associate a V6 SBC rod pin crank with an odd-fire crank. A SBC rod pin is a "straight pin" journal crank not an offset journal crank as in the even-fire cranks. If that's what you are asking about, you don't want one. If you are asking about an even-fire crank (off-set journal crank), you can get them in various stroker lengths with the 3.75 stroke being the most popular. Also, the diameter of the rod journal can be several sizes, ie.

SBC small journal - 2.0"
SBC large journal - 2.1"
v6 standard (even-fire) journal - 2.25"
BBC journal - 2.2"
v6 odd-fire is same as the sbc journal and may be either small or large journal diameter. I have heard of v6 even-fire custom cranks using 2.1", 2.25" (standard), and 2.2" journals.
