There are any number of companies that are willing to do this.. Figure 115$ a piston with rings for Wiseco, CP, or Ross... JE's would be more. They'll make whatever compression ratio you'd like, and...

I'd definitely go with the nicer coating for 10$ a piston, but thats just me. Ends up being about 680-740$ for the pistons...

Thats decently expensive, however I doubt JE will be even close to...

Just thought I'd let you all know that I'm talking to Mike Huml at Slowboy. He's contacting Wiseco about the possibility of creating pistons for the SVX. Since they already have the 2.2T pistons, I...

How much strength/temperature resistance would you lose if you took the stock SVX pistons and ground the raised area down a couple mms?

I'm just wondering if it would be possible to take a set of...
