Default wiseco pistons

i was trying to decide on what kinda pistons to get for my block. i know JE has awesome pistons, along with diamond. but does wiseco make quality pistons. they will have to be able to handle a 300 shot of nitrous(NAWS..hehe).

Wisecos are good, but i wouldnt say they are strong as a J&E or Diamond piston.

I found a set last year from a wiseco distributor for $450 or so with rings 3.905" bore

I ran them in my 346" this last year and sprayed up to about a 250 rwhp (300 shot) at it. Never had a problem. If that helps any
