If the pistons are hitting the crankshaft, either you have
1. the wrong pistons (350 pistons are relatively short butit is possible to purchase pistons with the same bore but a longer skirt... in which case they would hit the crank)
or
2. the wrong crankshaft with too much "throw"

Is a Chevy Aveo 1.6l a zero clearance engine?

The Chevy Aveo 1.6L engine is not classified as a zero clearance engine. Zero clearance engines, also known as interference engines, are designed in such a way that if the timing belt or chain fails, the pistons and valves can collide, leading to significant engine damage. The Aveo's design allows for some clearance between the pistons and valves, reducing the risk of severe damage in the event of a timing failure. However, it's always best to maintain the timing components to prevent any potential issues.

Will Chevy 307 pistons fit on Chevy 305?

307 pistons are 3.875" diameter. 305 pistons are 3.736". It might be possible to bore a 305 large enough to accept the 307 pistons, but the wrist pin location would be .230" off because of the different stroke. In short, no.
