1875g is pretty light, what rod journal?

No, these were used in my stock block 400ci.

If he were talking about a Carrillo 366 cid engine rod or 303 cid engine rod they would be 7.080" inches long John M.
He did not say 366 or 303 engine so assume your rod length question is valid (he had a typo error).
