David-

It's one of Greg's stroker rods, a Carillo H-series rod built to his specs. Much lighter and a lot stiffer than the stock GT rod shown.

He showed me an interesting comparo after I blew up the GTS- he clamped the big end of an R1 GTS rod to his mill table, and he can actually flex the thing by leaning on the little end. No such flex with the H-section on the stroker rod.

I wouldn't replace it.

When I saw the Pan, I knew I had to park next to it with our "Large GT cruiser" Leeroy and take a pic. The Pan is HUGE by comparison:
