RE: Badger pistons

Does $261 for a set of cast pistons fall into the cheapest category? I can't imagine paying more than that without going to a forged piston.

Paying too much for the same product quality will only make me poorer and not a bit more confident in the product. If a human being had anything to do with the parts in your engine then any of them could break.

The heads (D2TE-AA) on my 428 are listed for use on several FEs including 428s. So there must be some pistons for a 428 with these heads that result in a more reasonable compression ratio closer to 10:1.

I am going to take a piston to the machine shop and have it checked again for specs. I'll post what I find out.

This thread, so far...
