Thanks.

I just saw a super clean black Typhoon right down the street from my house and made me sad. I want mine up and running already.

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

I know, but Ive been doing quite a bit of reading on the SyTy boards, and I guess quite a few people use them with great success. Im going to pick up some Eagle rods as well and Ill be happy. Im getting a hookup on a Garrett GT42R that Im going to throw in later on, maybe after tax season.

Guy, those pistons I showed you with the Dart coatings have gone down in price and they come with the plasma rings and pins too. If I can get the guy thats buying my old motor out of my Eclipse to paypal me the money now, Ill just buy them then.

What do you guys think?

Probe pistons and rings, stock rods. Will outlast your power goals easily. And be less then half the cost.

I just dont want to be doing this all over again. The Sy Ty guys are not so comfortable using hypereutectic pistons, most of their builds using them fail. This truck is setup in stock form to run 15psi. Ill look into Probe pistons later and see what they have.

Im trying to figure out where i said hypertoocrackits? FRS probe pistons are forged and identical looking to the JE ones you posted and are only $350 for 8 of them, call and have them make you a deal on 6. The stock rods are pretty fuckin strong on a sbc. And i dont see you making 500rwhp any time soon. And if you do you'll be in the same position i'm in. Save the money, keep the power to around 450rwhp and you'll be a happy happy man
