With all the difficulty and headache I have had so far, I thought I would forge my own custom pistons. I was able to do this with the help of a company that originated in St. Louis but is now German owned.

These pistons are heavier than the "Light" versions but I like them, and am working on the third piston as we speak. I hope to have at least 8 done by the end of the night.

They said that these would produce some serious cyldesdales!

with the tops down you would have good oil retention inside the new pistons :mrgreen:
