Question Forged Pistons on a 1994 MustangGT. What do I need?

ok so heres the deal i've been planing on putting forged pistons on my stock 302ci mustang gt 94, what things do i need and does it give that much power ??? another question that i dont get is why this kit from ebay makes the 302ci engine a 347ci stroker engine ??? or does anyone know of better forged pistons that can recommend ???

Why do you need forged pistons? Are you planning on adding forced induction or nitrous?

The fact that the parts are forged doesn't add any power what so ever, it just means that they are stronger and can take more abuse.

Better for what? In what sense? Please be very specific because they can all make great power.
