Hyper vs Forged piston for 6.0 build
Hyper vs Forged piston for 6.0 build I'm starting a gen 3 6.0 build , it should be around 500 flywheel hp with cam, heads, tune,etc.. Car will be weekend warrior and plan to do some occasional street racing against the newer cars when opportunity arises, with tire burning etc... Will hyper pistons be enough? Or would I need forged?
Exactly, why even rebuild it if your just going back stock? The stock stuff will handle 500Hp with ease like G atsma mentioned

Verdad Gallardo Gotcha, might be cheaper to just get one that doesnt need to be rebuilt, but if money isnt an issue then have at it.
What happened to the engine that is requiring it to need a full rebuild?
Also if your having it bored and staying N/A you might consider having it bored to 4.065 and running a set of LS3 pistons

But unless his engine had bearing failure then his crank would be fine, and if he has Gen 4 rods all he would need is pistons/rings from a LS3

I would buy a used 6.0 but I can't find one I can witness running , plus they like 1500-2000 here and that's with high miles. Anyone have a source for a decent running 6.0 engine with no problems?
Here's a LS3 long block that's someone has for sale in Florida in case you're interested.

High mileage isn’t usually an issue, especially since the main wear items usually get replaced like lifters, pushrods, valve springs. there are some one eBay from reputable sellers for $1200-1400 shipped.
