Re: To build my engine a little bit.

BadAssY2KTA - I have the forged pistons you need on the shelf. They are a stock replacement piston for the LS1 and they have -2cc valve notches in them for oversized valves. There cost is $570.00 a set with wrist pins. If those are not what you are looking for give me a call and we can see what you need.

I'm building a stock cubed motor for a back-up if my stock 80K motor decides to take a dump on me ...I would like some info on your pistons...N20 will be used on the motor FYI.

To build my engine a little bit.

I was wondering how much it would cost, to build my engine up a little bit. Like new pistons(fly cut), rings, ARP head studs, new rod bolts, and anything else that is necessary to build a strong/killer 346 minus the heads and cam, I already know where I want to go with them. Also how hard is it to install these parts in your garage, I have done everything else so far and it wasnt that bad.

Re: To build my engine a little bit.

JoSey - Our pistons are all forged, that is all we make. A forged piston is much stronger than the cast pistons or the hyperutecnics. I might have misspelled that. Our off the shelf pistons will handle a 150 shot all day long, if you are going to spray it with more than that I would recommend that we make you a custom that you could spray the hell out of. Give me a call and we can work on a pistons for you, I can also send you out a catalog. Just give me a call.
