KB pistons & stroker

Anybody here use KB pistons (kb135 specifically) in a stroker?


Anybody run into any balance pad clearancing issues with them?

I have used that very piston on a set of reconditioned stock 5.7 rods and 3.75 stroke crank with no balance pad clearance problem.

Damn must be the crank then

Im running an eagle 4340 2 piece and the first counter weights' hit'n the #1 piston balance pad, pretty strong too


its the 5700 crank (specifically for 5.7 rods)

I was concerned with the rod botls, they cleared, too bad the piston dont
