    How is it going everyone? I just wiped 2 cam lobes and since I am taking the motor out to rebuild it I was thinking about just going to a 347. My question is how to figure out if I can reuse my speed pro h273cp pistons for the build. I was going to get an eagle crank and some new I beam rods to go with it but wanna reuse the pistons if I can.

    That piston is not for the 347 - compression height and the piston size / skirt, is made for a 5.090 rod.

    Best to just buy a complete 347 kit that will give you all the matching parts.
