Is it possible to be able to stroke your car with stock pistons??i want to do a bottom end i know i need bearings piston rings etc... do i need to change pistons??do they sell kits without pistons???i think stroking the motor means changing the length the pistons travel by changing the crank and/or rods...so is it possible?

yea a 325 (i think) or a 342

most of the time you have to bore the motor out to clean up the cylinder walls hence 306's. so i doubt u will get to keep your stock pistons

but theres a way you say without boring? top end is going to be ported gt 40's
havent decided the cam yet.....is there a kit out there jasper?

w8less

talk to FullAuto he sells strokers through the forum. also check out coasthigh performance i think the website is coasthigh.com

technically yes there is a way to stroke the motor without having to bore it.
how many miles is on the car?

almost 170k but doesnt knock or ping or overheat, i want to pull out the 302
change the bearings piston rings and theres a rebuild kit for that but i was wondering since my stock pistons are ok if i could just invest in a stroker kit that has what i need without spending more on boring otherwise id consider a 351w swap...

w8less

with a 170 on the clock i bet it has ring groves. boring a motor is inexpensive. 12-18 a cyclinder from what i have seen.

jerrylee01

that kinda milage bore it or maybe can jus hone it but ur deffantly gonna need new rings

decipha

yeah new rings... if your going to do it do it right... i would personally ditch the block and get a 351w if able

it will cost you much more to fugg with the 302 than it will be to pick up a 351.

go for the 351!
