Cryoing though making things harder does take away alot of the BENDING properties of a metal. Some parts are preferrable to bend instead of break.

But the process on other parts is awesome.

Agreed. Not necessarily bending only but expansion / contraction as well.

Cryo in the right application is great though. As is shot peening.

ahh ok. i really am not very familar with the cryoing process yet, all the parts i did i was told i should do by my boss. only thought it might be a good idea on the pistons but understand what you are saying though. dang, im gonna keep my mouth shut about where i work unless im 100% sure what im talking about, dont wanna put bad name on us, i only balance rotating assemblies for now lol

Well so much for anymore useful info to the thread starter since

I don't think he cares about how much power it takes to run an et he just wants to know what he needs to do to make his motor live...

I think balancing and new rod bolts and a good tune with the auto and you will be fine like we talked about......

I doubt you have to worry about the mains much since mine made 559 on nitrous and the mains held up fine....

Clevite P series and Hellfire nitrous rings.....Call it a day...
