The piston's are strong enough for you. How much boost are you planning to run with this build? If it's less than 15 lbs. then you will still be ok, but if its more than that you will need to use the 5.7 rod combo.

I thought T4's were a smaller turbos, something more common on 4 bangers. I was thinking of a single turbo off a diesel or something. Build the longblock like a brick house, and just max out the turbo.

I'm sure the piston will be strong enough, but I don't know if that 1.133" compression height will allow the 1/16 rings to be far away enough from the combustion heat. 1.133" is something you'd see for a NA motor, 1.300+ is more common for turbo/nitrous motors.

Yes I do know this, however I was still talking about a turbo application. I have had several discussions with the tech people at Ross & JE about a high boost 327 combo for a customer of mine. At 30 lbs of boost they said that I could still run a 1.25" compression height piston & be safe. If I were you I would contact Silvolite, since they make the piston, and find out what they say the limitations are for the piston application at hand.

Looks that way. I just got a cam/springs/retainers/etc. for my LS1, so it may be next month until I can get some cash for a 3rd gen F body.
