43543, Pistons? Posted by SavageGimp, Feb-04-03 09:17 AM
Hey guys, I'm going to be rebuilding my motor soon, and I was wondering what kind of pistons I should get and how much should I bore over. I dont really ever plan on going turbo so I dont really *need* forged pistons I guess. I'm looking for the least expensive solution here. I want to go with 10:5.1 compression probably. How much displacement do I get from going with a .030 or .040 overbore? is .040 safe? Where is a good place to get these pistons from besides howell (Howell is pretty espensive) Thanks in advance!!

i can get u some JE pistons pretty cheap pm me and i will hook u up,
anything al the way upto .160 over is safe as long as its done properly
u will not see a difference in displacement will u get about .060 or so if even then....
u need to either get stock pistons again and mill the head or go forged, no cast units available as of now...
