    347 stroker

    The kit has Kieth black Silvolite pistons. If it does intersect it is very minimal. I do so remember ,however that there were 3 oil control rings for added stability. I hope this answers your question. I could find the part #for the pistons. The kit was purchased and the engine was built 2 yrs ago.

    But they will balance the entire rotating assembly? What's the difference? It is just adding, removing. and/or moving weight right?

    cooling issues-need help!!

    Definitely put a thermostat in, water needs time in the rad to cool. Especially in a less efficient top to bottom rad as apposed to a cross flow. Sounds as though you spent a couple of bucks on the engine , how bout' a few more on a temp gage? I would check the orientation of the head gaskets it...
