Default No Pistons!

Only forged pistons available are custom (900.00+). If you keep stock pistons
and add forged rods will the stock pistons hold 10.5 psi boost and 125 shot?

thanks for the info.

im not sure about what you can bore them to. i suggest you call jason and tell him what you got and what you want to do and he should be able to hook you up with what you need. he gave me a killer deal on some pushrods yesterday.

Fogle, pm me with this "killer deal" if you dont mind

I have heard/read the 5.3 can be bored to the 5.7 bore, but I would double check that just to be sure. There are plenty of threads on it
