In order for any stroker crank to work with the motor is to have built to fit rods, and in some cases, pistons along with that. The reason being that the stroke is changed, meaning the stock rod and piston will be driven deeper and higher which could cause problems like a piston to valve collision. That's why most stroker 'kits' have shorter rods and slightly shorter pistons then stock. The reason for having overbore pistons in these kits is because they try to hit the par for 2.2L to be close as possible. Jun and Toda just love 87mm bores also to keep them from changing the stroke too much and cause a less "peppy" engine. Boring an engine gives more net results then stroking. One mm of bore gives more displacement gains then one mm of stroke.
