>One of the factors in choosing the crank maker was to have the ability to change journal sizes and widths to accomodate different folk.


Good news: 
One of the manufacturers agrees to make the journal size to your spec.  So, if you want chevy, ford or Honda (or  for that matter any size..) that has to be known in advance and placed with the order.  But, this is a very good thing as domestic (chevy/Ford)rods are easy and cheap. Bearings are easy to get and this solves a whole lot of issues.  The Center to Center distances may mean ordering pistons, however.  
I know some of you have already looked into this in detail. 

 Which domestic rod legnth comes closest to std Triumph?  

I will let you know tommorrow about costs.
