Sealed power kits are fine. Call the guys at pacific engine, chances are they can get it cheaper, see sig for number.

I second that, they made me a good deal on the parts and work on the 5.0 for the Explorer.

I talked to them about it and they said its about $60-$70 for a single piston, and not to try a re-ring on that piston. Shawn says the best bet for a rebuild is a set of probe fps forged pistons so you can up the boost safely.

I'm not really looking to up the boost for awhile, I have other things that I want to work on first. I am glad to hear that Sealed Power is a good setup. If it's just the head gasket, which I doubt it is, I'll pick up some Cometic gaskets then. My luck is never that simple though.
Now would be a good time to have my intake manifold powder coated. I'd also like to do my fuel rails (stock setup is stupid IMO), and the fpr.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

I'll try and find a pic of how I want it, but I want it all silver with the lettering in red.

I need to clean the internal parts first, they are full of oil from blowing out the PCVs. What kind of silver do you have? I wonder what a wrinkle silver would look like??

I want to do my intercooler and tb as well, just have to get new gaskets for the tb though, but they are cheap.
