http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/t...TCMOTOR020.jpgThanks 4220 believe it or not i spent endless hours machining those pistons to work in a turbo motor. They were originally high compression 2.3 pistons. The midnighter came out real good i love that car. right now she is in pieces. New motor being built. Its a real trick motor with a dragon crank. It should be running 30 lbs of boost. Hope i am not pushing the boost to high. But i want a real high HP no BS 2.3 that kicks butt. Its hard to moove a heavy car so i am thinking 4 elevens (4.11) in the rear. I have a lot of time invested in him but its worth it. I love this car to death. I have other cars that are much faster but this was JR first car and he gave it to me. I an going all out with this baby. See you in the spring Thanks for the nice words i really mean it. TOM

I would but they are obsolete. Dianond makes them at 350.00 for a set of 4. I had these laying around and had no other choice the pistons were to high on compression.

I have a piston number that i use in na motors that are forged and i will get it for you. If you are building a 2.3 with a stout cam they will work without mods. I will get the number for you. TOM
