FE Strokers - which Rods work

Could I ask what OEM con rods can be used to stroke FE cranks.

I beleive 225 slant six mopar rods work ?
I have been told 400/351M rods are possible also ( are they wide enough ?)
I've heard a mention of 300 Ford inline 6 working.

tia, all of the rods you mentioned will work, the 400/351M rods are the right width already, the 6 popper rods have to be narrowed. Some folks like to run aftermarket racing rods designed for a BBC, which also have to be narrowed. DF

Thanx for the feed back.
Are there any other suitable Rods that you have heard of.
Down on this side of the planet some of that after market stuff is a bit expensive.
