I got standard length turbo tuffs, and i got weisco hd2 pistons, 10.5:1. I assumed the ad was for standard length, but instead they're stroker pistons. Ad said nothing about this, and neither did the guy.

WHAT IF, i used standard length rods with a stroker piston its shorter by probably 5 or 6mm than a standard dsm rod/piston combo. Obviously my compression would be lower, since they're 10.5:1 on correct build, would it be more like 8.5:1 or 9:1?
 
. It might You can use a engine compression calculator I think we would need more info to properly say for sure, I was looking at one i usually use and they ask for, Enter Piston Stroke Length,Enter Head Gasket Bore Diameter,Enter Compressed Head Gasket Thickness,Enter Piston Dome Volume,Enter Piston Deck Clearance Negative. It might be the same due to the fact they were designed to be highcompression but were just shortned.
