Do you mean that you've bought 10 new pistons or 10 new pistons and rods? You haven't bought used items have you?

So let me get this straight you are going to tear down a known good engine to fit some secondhand parts just so we can't call you a 'Creampuff'?????

Baz are you feeling OK??????

You might want to change them to raise or lower c/r, or to get bigger valve cut outs, or to fit teflon coated jobbies. there are a few reasons why they might be changed but I agree, you'd have to be keen

Did you know there's a big bore kit for the viper? Maybe it's been fitted with bigger liners?

I bought them from Carl because he let me have them for what i thought was a good price. I have a few other parts coming as well and one day it will get a SC'er so thought wile i'm in there might as well put some forged pistons in and get rid of the cast...

Good move, it's always nice to drop onto a bargain. When you get in there you could get some coated bearing shells to make it spin nice and free.)
