Wow, I have seen the pistons and would have pictures for ya, but I didnt have a camera on me before he sent them off to the machine shop. They look nice, and the oilers impressed me. A picture's worth a thousand words. Boat, when will the pistons be back so I can get some pics?

He said he's taking the stuff in to get the bottom end balanced tonight so the bottom end should be done shortly. I'm thinking that the shop will be done with everything this week. We'll see...

[float_6969]

I'm balancing due to the new pistons. They are TOTALLY different than the stock ones (bore and compression) and I'm pretty sure that the weight of the new pistons are different, so I told him to balance it.

[biosehnsucht]

yeah they'll be lighter. mine are, don't recall how much.
