The pistons must be removed from the cylinders to replace the rings. Therefor, you must disconnect the rods from the crank. No options no alternatives period

Putting a 327 crank in a 350 makes it a 327. (3.25") You can't put a 327 crank into a 350 without changing the pistons. The piston would be 1/4" down in the hole, and would have very little compression.
Do the pistons turn the crankshaft or the crankshaft turn the pistons?
Technically both, before the vehicle is running on its own via combustion the crankshaft rotates and moves the pistons, once combustion has occurred the pistons take over if you will and turn the crank which rotates the next piston into position for combustion
