Okay, don't snap at me about this as I'm still learning. As a few of your know, I am slowly building a simple 400 stroker with standard 440 crank using the short 400 rods. I am also unemployed and doing this with a zero budget. I've got the crank in okay and have turned my attention to pistons. Hard to afford KB's (though I'd like to), but recently a friend said to just to get some used Ford 460 pistons. I said no way, but then thought about it. The stock 460 piston has a 4.36 bore (and I need to bore my block .020" anyway) and a compression height is about 1.712"...quite close to the KB215's. I don't know the Ford pin size? That may be a problem.

He also said that if I can't find the Ford's, then get some .020" over 400 mopar pistons and cut the tops by .085" Would any of this work? Thanks!
