stroker engine balancing

Jessearent said
Still waiting for the parts to get it in for the bore / honer tool. And I figure I will do just 1 dome piston hack and see see how it turns out...that's a 340 piston in a 360 block. I don't have a 360 block that needs my / those hacked pistons. What I have and or planning is a 340 block .030 over. I will install the Icon 741.070 360 forged piston(because it's lighter than cast aluminum pistons) and use the discounted H beam rods I got on EBAY . Use Scats cast internally balanced crank 318/340 3.58" throw. Because it's lighter than forged cranks. Won't spend any money on bob weight/ machinist time for the last few grams of balance perfection. Sincerely JesseElectronics, Cars, Fashion, Collectibles & More | eBay

I ran 340 pistons in a 360 block in the seventies and just followed the article for Hoovers Mover in the magazine article. The owner of that car was Tom Hoover, an old retired ex engineer at Chrysler and explained how to do that for a high compression 360. You had to machine the pin bosses underneath as they would hit on the crankshaft throws and needed about 100 thou of the tops of the pistons to achieve zero deck. I ran my car with an engine like that and ran mid thiteens with a std 360 camshaft. Tom Hoovers car ran high elevens at the time.
