More info would be needed but the SRP is a sportsman's race piston from the folks at JE. They will work fine for most all except the most demanding applications

I am running srp pistons from JE and they seem to be really good quality.

The pistons themselves are jewels and you'll love them. They are 4032 alloy which means you can run a little tighter piston/cylinder wall clearance, the only time they'd not be really good is if you are doing a max effort engine possibly with a big load of nitrous. Then a 2618 piston would be better, but all the TRW/Speed Pro pistons over the years have been 4032 or a similar alloy.
