Who and where did you order them from? I feel that if you ordered parts by a name brand and nothing was said to you by the peson selling those parts to you, then you should have received what you ordered and nothing else. As for the brands, they are very good. i happen to have both CP pistons in one engine and pauter rods in another engine.

I got CP pistons myself, so far so good!I don't know if JE's still have the slap issues they had a reputation for years ago (not necessarily CA but in general) but I know I have no noticible (i.e., none AFAIK) with my CP's.
