forged conrods
 
Please, is it possible to fit these conrods to oem BP-Z3 engine pistons (10:1 cR) without any modifications?

H Beam Con Rods Rod for Mazda MX5 MX 5 Miata B6 BP 1 6 1 8 133mm Arp 2000 800HP | eBay

the rods dimensions:
-C-C length: 133mm
-Big End Diameter: 48mm
-Pin Diameter: 20mm
-Big end width: 21.84mm
-Small end width: 21.84mm


Seller wrote me: "Our rods can't fit wrist pins on oem pistons but only floating pistons.If the dimensions are the same, please turn to a qualified mechanic for help to look for a floating piston and fit them on your car. It's a not difficult project only if the dimensions are right"

Is it true ? I was thinking that oem miata pistons are floating pistons. Not wrist pins pistons like seller wrote me.

OEM is floating wrist pin.

Thanks, so both should fit without pin modifications to stock 10:1 pistons.

I've run ebay rods with 10:1 2001+ miata pistons, they worked great.
