Of course Im talking about stock pistons....why would I be talking about dumping aftermarket ones?

Yes Im talking about stock cast 6.1 slugs - general opinion being any sort of boost over 6psi sees you losing the top ring land after a while...

If you disagree...Im sure others will verify that this is the commonly held opinion....

However not sure if te 5.7s suffer from the same issue?




Um I helped a good friend of mine Rashad Flemmings rebuild and install a stock with cam swap 6.1L into his 06 300C with a paxton S/C and a 100shot of nitrous. Been running for a year now with many track outtings at 10psi with no issues at all.
