[QUOTE="SVTCobra60, post: 16115606, member: 104950"] Gotcha ok, seems less extreme with that number. I should have clarified what I was talking about a bit more, I was referencing - "With custom pistons, you could choose whatever bore size you desire and end up with something between 330 and 358 cubic inches, the latter using a 3.7" bore." - By this, did you mean that, assuming you are getting aftermarket pistons and not keeping stock, you can get a displacement of anywhere from 330-358 depending on what bore diameter you choose for your sleeves? And it could range between the two values assuming you fall somewhere between stock 5.4 bore size (? not sure on measurement) and 5.8 bore size (~3.68). Yeah I definitely like the rear of the 13-14 more than the 10-12 look. It's not a huge change but I think it looks badass. I THINK I mentioned goals but I'll go over it again. Fun weekend car is it's main purpose. It will NOT see the 1/4 or the 1/8th ever. But I would like to bring it to roll racing type events. Ok so based on that, sounds like rods will definitely be needed for sure. So in your opinion the sleeves/aftermarket pistons aren't needed until 1200rwhp? I absolutely will be extremely diligent in ensuring the car was done by a reputable shop/tuner. I'm trying to learn as much as I can before I start looking for a car so that I can look through a build sheet and figure out if anything was skipped/cheaped out on lol. I'm hoping that there will be an influx of GT500's with the new 2020 coming out, which should also in turn bring prices down a bit. Alright so you're at 1krwhp without sleeves, I assume that means you still have stock pistons and only got forged rods? Thanks for the help! [/QUOTE]
