If you use regular 306 pistons with a stroker crank those pistons will be popping out of the cylinders. The height or compression depth on stroker pistons are way shorter.

Or in other words, the problem lies in where the wrist pin is in the piston. It maybe might be possible with different length rods but i'm not the person to ask about that.
