    this is not the best lookin pics, but I don't have time to make them look pretty




    springs and clips are decent, so I with throw them in too


    not clean, but I have looked and there is no scaring and the rings are in good shape too

    Ok I have no idea if those are in good shape (I lack the knowledge of internals) Can someone please tell me if those are in good condition? Or look like it. Are they supposed to be black? Does anyone think it's not worth swapping in lx-i pistons to get a high compression ratio? I was told for the work to install them it wouldn't be a big difference.

    How much were you thinking about selling them for?

    they will come clean.. I just don't have the time to scrub them with a brush to pull the oil residue off....
    don't know anything about the compression difference

    I was thinkin like $50 for all 4 w/ rods, and the other stuff is included

    I know they go $65 a piece in some stores.. I just don't need them

    I wouldn't really have to think about it but I just realized what you have to do to install them. Take off head and oil pan and then replace them. I installed my camshaft from deltacams and I could handle that but I don't know about pistons. I'm interested in them for sure I just need to check out how much from shops and friends for installation. I wouldn't mind getting JE pistons but I don't have $500 for pistons right now.

    did you take the pistons out yourself? Do you know how to install them? Someone should make a how to on pistons so I can do it

    Oh and for anyone that was wondering... I am making a how-to for a plexi-glass ram air box. I will have pics and everything once I get my docking port.

    OMG you are so cool!!!! I'm just kinda worried about ripping everything down to the block and doing them. Hmm... I wonder can I port and polish my head and block? Or do I need a pro to do that? I'm doing a manifold for my weber but that won't take too much skill to do.

    I would just go with the UPS ground if I were to buy them. What do you have to do, to port and polish the head and block? Do you just smooth everything out or do you grind out to a certain measurement? If so what is the measurement?

    I think it is to a certain measurement, but not sure of what it is.. I have to ask my buddy, but then you just polish after the porting.. I know you have to use a dremel.. there is a how to on this on the board
