Dan first told Diamond that only 2 changes would be needed to fit one of their shelf pistons to my 4.08 stroke then he ended up changing there skirt measurments because my pistons come so far out the bottom. He also champhered the bottom of the bore. It wasnt done before. When I just had the pan off the skirts still like new. When you look at the pistons that were in my engine you can see how bad the skirt scraping was. I have all these emails from Dan explaining what changes he kept making to the pistons and read them from time to time. I miss that man
