Default Diamond Pistons

I have 1 piston I'd like to replace, has a nice ding it. Anyone know if/where I can buy just a single -8.7cc 3.905 bore (for 347, 6.125" pro mod ibeams). Piston? Hope someone can help. This is the last thing keeping me from selling the entire thing... The mrs. told me if I can get the individual piston and have the shortblock assembled (so nothing else happens) then I can keep the car... Help someone? =\

Why can't you get one from Diamond? Are they only going to do a full set or something?

Thumbs up

You can get a single from Diamond and email me if you need help. Just make sure you need it first. You need to know which side it was on though as Diamond and Wiseco have offsett in their pistons to make them quieter.

I was kind of hoping a sponsor would step up and take my money rather than going directly through the manufacturer. I believe they are passenger pistons... I have a person stating he can get me them for $87 a piece + shipping. I guess I'll be overnighting them anyway now to have them for Sunday. Hope I get the right ones...

Yes they go by driver and passenger side if you tell them and they will get you the right ones and it sounds like someone has already!
