Who sells the best " CHEAP " piston for a 408 stroker, street engine ? I know, I know....cheap isnt the way to go....I preach it all the time...now I'm being a hypocrite, so sue me ! It will be in a 408, with a hydraulic cam with .247 / .253 dur @ .050 and .494 / .507 lift.
Just looking for suggestions.

I won't use hypers in a stroker application. But SRP makes a nice fairly inexpensive forged piston. I think they are a good value for the dollar.


Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.

Check out the KB line of forged slugs. Good price and the first set of KB744's I've had in my hands were very nice.
