Default Rod question

I have a set of Eagle rods for a B18b part #CRS5394A3D and I am selling them but just checked this website http://www.cdpautomachine.com/ecatalog/importrods.html
and saw that they are the same as the B17 which is the block that I am going to buy, please someone tell me if this website is wrong or right.

Let me know if the rods I have now will fit the B17 crank or if not. Please let me know ASAP

So then this is wrong

B16A:
Rod length: 134 mm
Stroke: 77 mm
R/S: 1.74:1
Displacement: 1587.12 cc

B17A:
rod length: 131.87 mm
Stroke: 81.4 mm
R/S: 1.62:1
Displacement: 1677.81 cc

B18A-B:
Rod length: 137mm
Stroke: 89mm
R/S: 1.54:1
Displacement: 1834.47 cc

B18C:
Rod length: 137.9 mm
Stroke: 87.2 mm
R/S: 1.58:1
Displacement: 1797.36 cc

I really need to know if these rods will fit the B17 crank and if they are not too long, and will put a piston through the head. Please someone give me concrete evidence.
Thanks Alberto.
And yes I have tried calling them w/ no luck and there website is down.

I just got off of the phone w/ Eagle and they said that there are two different size rod lenghts that the B17 used and I thought that was funny, anyone w/ any experience w/ building a B17, I really need your guidance or advice.
