Are the Arias .40 over 8.8:1 pistons, stroker pistons?

[snowmansdsm09]

I just bought some Arias .40 over 7-bolt pistons w/ a 8.8:1 compression.
I also just bought 1g "big" rods, thinking of buying eagles.

My question is, are these stroker pistons?
Do I need to use the 2.4l crank or can I just swap the 1g rods and Arias pistons in w/ my stock 2.0 crank?

I saw a "stroker" kit on ebay that has these same pistons except .20 over and some eagle rods... I thought its not a stroker unless you use the 4g64 crank?

Ok, I just read on here that when you make a stroker you have to have custom pistons.
Then why is this ebay company selling the same pistons and calling them a stroker kit?

That eBay link says nothing about stroker kit. Stroker pistons will have the wrist pin higher in the pistons to allow for the extra stroke of the 4g64 crank so the piston doesn't hit the head.

i would trust ebay for stuff that important anyways

A 2.3L stroker is clasified with a 4G64 crank, 5.900" long rods...or 1G"big rod" length, and stroker pistons, these are special pistons used for strokers, normal pistons will not work. this is because with a 4G64 crank stock sized 2.0L pistons will stick out of the top of the block because the stroker pistons are shorter due to the added stroke from the crank. A 2.4L stroker has a 4G64 crank, special long rod stroker rods, longer then the 2.3Ls, and custom stroker pistons like the 2.3Ls. Those are probably regular pistons, unless the company you bought them off of said they were stroker pistons...and Im refering to reputable company's, not these"companies" that work on ebay alone. Also DO NOT get something as instrumental as engine internals off of EBAY, yeah sure light bulbs, stock leather seats, head lights, ect... but not something important. Go with the stroker kit from SBR I have been looking around for the best/cheapest kit, and this is it, rated up to 500hp at the crank, all the others that I have found...from reputable companies are 500+ more then this one, and they use the same set up(eagle rods, your choice of pistons, and a remaned 4G64 crank).
