Re: Project Corvette

Ive heard that as well, a lot more travel dropping the piston down into the cylinder, so running high boost on a stroker isnt advised. It also depends what pistons you go with, some have shorter skirts. If I remember correctly stock its 3.622", a 416cu is 4" and the 427 is is 4.125.

I still have the old pistons in a box, they looked great and the other cylinders were really clean. DRM stripped it all down and said besides the valve drop the motor still looked great. Ill dig them out and post pics.
