The answer to that is nobody knows yet because it hasn't been done. And what's more is none of us will be able to answer your question any time soon as we all got H beam rods too.
Some brave soul will have to put these pistons on stock rods to find out. Quote:

Hmmm, how much boost can those pistons/pins/rings withstand?

Excellent specs. CP pistons are supposed to be top notch. Since this seems to be an obvious weak point from Tom's extensive experimentation, I think that this was a smart move. Can't wait to see them. Didn't you also mention that these were 97 mm diameter in a previous thread?

sure... you are more than welcome to come stop by the shop when I am there sometime... I am going to be devoting most of the garage space to building both mine and Sicksubie's motors. I just gotta finish school and free up some time to get some work done in there

The pistons themselves are not 97mm. The pistons are for a 97mm bore which is just a light hone on the factory cyllinders. The pistons are 96.9137mm at the guage point.
Just remember to hone your cyllinders to 3.819" = 97mm. The ring set includes instructions on the hone as far as grits to be used and what not though it is pretty standard stuff. Quote:
