Just got my new Wiseco pistons today. These are the shelf stock stroker pistons for the 4" crank. Gas ports, coated skirts, etc. Should end up being about 13:1 on my engine. You just cant imagine this ind of quality for less than $600 especially for a Mopar. Kudos to the Wiseco guys.

Upper ring down a bit to accommodate for nitrous I believe. I have Edelbrock heads.
Shawn I have an engine. I just havent gotten the answers that I am looking for on the problems they have been having. So I am just rebuilding what I have and gonna concentrate on some chassis stuff this year.

Edelbrocks. This is not much more than a replacement of parts in my current engine. I was already running the Ross pistons that brought me to about 12.5 CR. Havent even done the math but it looks like I may get a little more out of these. No biggie though cause I am not looking for more power out of this. Just fresh parts.
