Can't find a good dished LS2 piston/rod combo(stock cubes) Maybe im not looking in the right area...but where can I find a good piston/rod combo for my LS2?? Mainly looking for a 4.005 since i was told going to a 370ci isn't exactly safe for these blocks and I want it to be able to maintain around 850whp....also using 317 heads.

4.010 is fine on a LS2. I ran 1400ish hp all of 2008 with zero issues. I pushed it closer to 1700hp in 2009 and the liner finally let go...

If you run a longer rod such as a 6.125 there is quite a good selection of pistons out there scoggins caries a few different brands to select from. http://sdparts.com/catalog/ls-gen-ii...mblies/pistons

I'm running the Wiseco KX444055 -11cc dish in a fresh Gm 6.0l block with a 4.005 hone. Hitting around 9.6:1 with Patriot LQ9 Stage ll's milled .030 and GM MLS gaskets. I got them from SDParts with rings for around $700.
