If you are just replacing the poured rod bearings with inserts you just need to machine your rods or buy new ones (Kanter offers them). If you want to convert to full pressure rod lubrication that is more involved- you have to drill the crankshaft and modify the block so oil flows to the rod journals. It's easier to put in a 235 block and you can disguise it as a 216.
