Forged Piston?

I'm not using forced induction, but I voted other. I'm building a 408 Stroker engine and I am using Wiseco pistons because of their design (offset pins, designed for good clearance with strokers).

Thats one thing I haven't seen a write up on. Forged Rotating Assemblies and Short Blocks in general. It'd be nice to have since people like me are not as knowledgeable on that area. It'd be a great crash course and might even gain more interest. Just a thought.

diamond, because the tech knew what he was talking about, they came looking like art with an extra thick crown and 24cc dish and hit my 8:1 mark right on the money! took a few 1000+rwhp pulls, took the heads off and the pistons looked BRAND new.

Diamond because that's what Thunder Racing used in the build.
