JE Pistons, is actually Performance Motorsports, Inc. doing business as JE Pistions. Performance Motorsports, Inc. is a division of Dover Corporation which contains several companies including both JE Pistons and Wiesco Piston Inc. JE Pistons is largest seller of performance pistons in the US market.

I have not used JE Pistons, but can find no reason not to.

JE pistos are top notch for racing apps but they do have a narrow skirt. If you are going to do a lot of street driving I recommend a set of wiseco pistons they have a much wider skirt and supports the rings better at bdc.
