Looks to be forged pistons, but can not find anything from the numbers inside pistons. Skirts looks like TRW I had in my 440 engines some 25 years ago, to me? It was a widow who sold the car to Sweden some 12 years ago, so no history went with the sale.

Pan is back on with new oil. I have an fiberoptic camera at work I could stick in the spark plug hole to look at the top. Thanks for posting / Tom
