The pistons will fit your motor as long as your bore size is the same. You will have to bore your cylinders +.020" if the pistons are +.020". The rod length and stroke have nothing to do with the piston.

However, if the pistons create a 9.8:1 C/R on his B18B it will create a different C/R on your motor due to the different cylinder heads. You will need to find out the dome volume of the pistons to figure out the compression ratio it will create using your head.

After checking Arias site for the Dome displacement. According to C-speedracing compression calculator in a B18C5 those pistons would make the compression 9.4:1 considering you use standard rods for the B18C5.
