I see nothing wrong with those pistons :shrug: and I plan on re-using them in my rebuild. :poke::kaboom:

i dont think you will be able to unless your stock block was punched out to 3.7.
stock pistons are around 3.552 right? someone correct me if im wrong.

Thanks for the heads up, but that is the budget return system which may not be up to the task for where my car will end up. ;-)

Oh stop. That system will work for your whole 500hp setup. Lol:banana::dw:

Looks good keep those pictures coming brother!

Stroker crank is cracked and can not be reused as well as one of the connecting rods.
