if Wiseco makes pistons they should be priced similar to current offerings which are less than 500 which includes rings

Also seems to make high quality pistons and worth considering;

Why 3.75 stroke .
If you are going to the trouble of doing this why not max out the stroke
3.825 is possible from a stock crank at 2.100
3.925 at 2.00
either one will except a 6 to 6.125 rod with a custom piston
Just a thought as I don't think I would waste my time with a 3.75 stroke

I thought 360 on down have a stroke clearance issue and require some work??? Won't be a drop in fit.

I think the guy with dual 360s mated or SC390 has a trailer filled of engines. A 304 or 360 would be a good test. If the main webbing breaks before the crank does, I think guys with bigger engines will gladly give em a try.

IF [big IF] you used .090 over 304 pistons with a 3.75 stroke, you could end up with a 347 cubic inch motor like the SBF guys do with THEIR stroker motors.

THEN a 347 AMC vs. a 347 SBF comparison would be possible using similar intakes and cams...

A 3.75 stroke will work well all around and use quality common parts on the market now to keep cost down.
