Stock pistons...
People have put down 600+rwhp with the stock cast pistons. You just have to make sure and get enough fuel so they won't detonate. Being cast, they'll be less forgiving then forged pistons.

What kind of shot are you doing? Wet, Dry, or Direct?

Seen 600's a couple times before they blew.
Really on a H/C/I LS1 a 150 shot is the generally accepted norm...though ive heard doing 2 stages is a little easier on the pistons?
This would be something for the N20 forum but I wonder if a 1st stage of 100 and a 2nd stage of 100 would be easier on the engine than a single 200.
