The NA 2.5L rods, years 2000 up are 1mm longer. The crank pin and piston pin are the same as SVX.
Use late 2.5L rods, and then trim the piston top accordingly. You will end up with a dish that is 1mm less deep, slightly raising the comp ratio. Of course the top ring will be 1mm closer to fire, but the compression distance is already substantial on these pistons.
