man, just get forged internals and be done with it. Im doing almost the same thing as you.. For pistons I went with wisco pistons and their napier ring package. As far as ptv clearance.. i have no clue lol

The stock rotating assembly won't be able to consistently handle a 250 shot. You need to at least put forged rods and pistons in the motor unless you want to be rebuilding it shortly again. We usually go Wiseco Pistons with their ringset, and a Callies H-beam rod.

Sorry to revive this thread but since the pistons are the weakest part on spray, how long til the rods go if they have ARP bolts in them and the shot is between 300-400? Will they hold up through that or no?
