Stock vs Stroker Pistons for Fun

Piston tech question...

Does a shorter piston tend to rock more in the bore?

If so does that cause faster wear on the cyl walls and piston skirts?

The taller piston will be more prone to rocking in the bore. The pin is lower so the piston above the pin has more leverage over the rest of the piston.
