New Custom Piston Source

[the_wrench116]

so what kind of time frame are we looking at? do you need a test dummy?

Well we are thinking about a custom forge tool for a inline 6 piston. This would cover 258, 232 and 4.0ltr engines. The price per set would be $475 shipped (pistons with pins) and we could tailor size and compression needed. Any takers? We have solely been a high performance AMC V8 shop but are now switching to support the 6 cylinders. We will be bringing a product line over to the 6's and this ...hopefully will be one of them.

This site looks like a great source for info on the 6 strokers!

Glad to be aboard!!

i am interested in a set of .060 over pistons i am going to go with a zero deck and am looking for 9.5:1 or so. going to use the long rod set up from the 4.0L not the 4.2L

Forging has started we should see a sample by friday. Thank you for those who have waited it out you will be pleased! We are commited to the 6cyl market so much we bought one of these for porting heads

[the_wrench116]

that thing looks bad a$$. let me now if you need a test dummy as i have a renix block ( suposedly a high nickle content ) for my build as well as a fully counterweighted 4.2L crank. 0331 head and an octopus intake.

Will you be porting customer heads, or selling heads already ported? Also, do you have estimated costs / timelines?

MC where have you been all my life? In particular the past three months! I waited over two months for a specific set of KB-IC944s and eventually had to settle for 40thou instead of 60thou. Great to see the venerable amc 6 getting some more attention from a reputable company - keep up the good work. Hopefully I have reason to buy something before too long

[Jeepsr4ever]

We will most likely be doing both (porting and selling ported heads). Pistons will come out before the heads.

Hey I see your in Perth. We have 2 guys running V8 strokers from Bulltear in Perth.

Cool, Jeep guys? They could be Mopar guys, 340/360 are very popular here in Australia, they're in almost every second Chrysler Charger and Valiant!

SAMPLES ARE IN! Covering bores from 3.75-4.08

Wow, those look beefy

Hey All,
Just had a LONG conversation with Glen at BullTear. THAT will be a FANTASTIC source for forged pistons! SUPER nice guy and he seems to be well informed about the stroker. Looks like they'll also be doin' rods, CNC heads, and possibly a roller cam, if we pester them about it. It'll be more of a "handmade" resource than others that are out there, and maybe if the demand is great enough the prices will be reasonable due to volume.
