    forged pistons?

    hey guys... where should i go to get forged pistons and connecting rods...

    cheap is nice, but quality is a lot more important. any help?
    87 hatch (stolen)

    88 lxi 4dr, 5spd, threw a rod... in process of swapping engine from my 87 hatch (police recovered what was left of the car).

    the fucker that sold me the 88 is lucky he lives 500 miles from me...

    JE. srp. maybe arias... I don't know if any of them still makes pistons for an A-series engine though. You'd probably have to split for a custom set, which would cost you around 800.

    Why do you need forged pistons???

    oh, and i'd bet eagle makes rods and a crank.

    If it's production, then yeah, i should hope so!

    I was just saying he might have to spend that much if they would have to make a custom piston set for him.

    btw, you're referring to FORGED pistons, right? Because I don't think he wants regular cast pistons.

    So how much do you think it would cost?
