    I am thinking No as Geers lists fitment for the 36 Chief pistons as:
    This part also fits:

    • 1936 Chief
    • 1937 Chief
    • 1938 Chief
    • 1939 Chief
    • 1940 Chief
    • 1941 Chief
    • 1942 Chief
    • 1944 Chief
    • 1945 Chief
    • 1946 Chief
    • 1947 Chief
    • 1948 Chief

      No, just the difference between the 74" and the 80" pistons

        My 34 chief came with optional low compression cast iron pistons,with I guess aluminum being standard.
        When did aluminum pistons become standard?
        My guess is the bore,wrist pin location are same with differences being material and ring number and thickness,no t-slot or cam ground.
        I changed the 2 comp ring cast piston to late aluminum t-slot cam ground style.
