#126413, "Piston choice?"


          

I can't really decide on a set of forged pistons I want to go with for my engine rebuild. I want to get a good set that is not going to weigh my pockets down as well? What do you guys think?

His choice in ratio will also depend on what he is planning on doing. Can't give him accurate information if he doesn't provide the information that is needed.

AND......

Who cares what he meant, he just posted to get his number up so that he could hock his stuff in the for sale section. He hasn't even responded to his post asking questions since he got called out by 420agreenvilleSC.

I saw yesterday at SBR the have the new JE brand SRP PRO for the 420a the had a real nice price. and is a good comp ratio 9.0:1 I think this could be really good to boost and to use with nitrous. And there almost as cheap as wisecos.
