Buying mod pistons / rods etc USA?

[N GTS]

Hi, I'm wanting to build up my '05 Mustang GT engine for a twin screw K&B blower, lower CR, target 600 bhp... can anyone recommend a vendor in USA that you have personaly purchased forged pistons, rods, bearings package from please that you were happy with? I have a few parts ready to go, forged crank, uprated fuel system, oiling etc; I'm aware of all the tuners / vendors, but have been sent some wrong parts, and what a lot of fun that is with returns and customs and shipping costs! I know what I want to purchase, its just finding a good supplier. If it were for a Viper I know of all the decent dealers, so I'm hoping there might be a few that have built up a good reputation in the Mustang world that people here have had good experience with? Cheers.

I am about to go down the same route soon as I reached the limit of the stock bottom end with my saleen blower. From what I have read most of the people stay with the stock CR when they go forged. Especially if you are after 600 at the wheels. I have dealt with JDM for a tune and small stuff and they seem to be very professional and spot on. Plus they have the whole package (pistons, rods, bearings, stroker crank etc) on sale for 2100 usd. Anyway if you are building the engine you shall go for the 302 stroker

Remember Nad to build it (the engine) somewhere where you can still get it through the door, and into the car

Thank you, I have the tuning sorted and stroker, just need the pistons and rods to my specs as I do want to lower CR to around 8.5:1 with that Kenne Bell twin screw. 600 flywheel target, the block isn't so strong on these '05s as my '99.

Oh no, dont remind me about the width of that built up DOHC 4 valve thankgoodness this little 3 valve will just fit in and out of the lounge!
