Contact Chris at Diamond Pistons, one of our sponsors. He can spec out a set of custom pistons for you at a reasonable price.

Every builder has his favorite brand, I don't think there is one "best" piston out there, they all tend to be similar.

lol, your right. i should rephrase that question again.
Does anyone have a favorite high hp/boost piston, and why do you recomend that particular piston. thats better.
on that note, while i'm emailing diamond, why do you recomend them?
thanks

1more, i have the pistons you are looking for....i bought them for my 370 build but i'm going with a 6.0 stock bore stock stroke motor with forged rods/pistons so the 4.030 pistons aren't any good to me and someone needs to buy them.

Ditto.. give Chris @ Diamond a call. He will definitely get you the piston you need in a very timely manner at a great price.

There pistons are good to around 20lbs of boost and they are the least expensive. Plus there customer service seems to be the best.
How many other manufactures for pistons post on this board? You got a reply from the maker himself!!!!!
While JE and Ross may make good pistons, do they post on this board? Here you have a Company that wants to keep its customers (and future customers) happy.
Ordering a set tomorrow myself!
