looking for cheap and easy pistons

Post by BREEZE1 »

Whats the cheapest pistons I can get to put in my stroker? Something that I don’t have to get dished.. I was planning on building a 4.7l, but it seems like folks are having trouble getting pistons or either they cost an arm and a leg.

All of the inexpensive (Hate calling them cheap) pistons are going to need to be dished to get a decent compression ratio. However, dishing is cheap if you contact oletshot on this board. And the pistons themselves are cheap also. Look at the FAQ for pistions... The 2229's or 677's are going to be your best bet.
If it feels right, then STROKE it!
