Re: forged pistons
Timing belts break, even brand new ones. Water pumps seize, idlers seize, and the timing belt gets trashed. It does happen. If that can be avoided easily, why not?
The cp pistons I just got seem to be really high quality, well worth the wait (which is short considering it's a custom job after all). An engine build takes a while anyway, so a few weeks isn't really that much.
