Pulled the head, looks nasty? (56k no way)

LOL I am the former VP of "been there done that". Better join the NRRBA so we can keep track of when you officially became NR. Who knows? Maybe you can become the president some day!

^^ not something you want or should be proud of.

I've got a set of 6 spare rb25 pistons removed from my motor your welcome to buy them for a pretty cheap price. Like $10.00 for all plus shipping. Not sure on the condition of the rings, but you can get new ones.

Yep looks like I need to go ahead and join the NRRBA. I was dead set on going ahead and buying the CP pistons, but its just sooo much money, I hesitated. If I buy shocker's pistons I can finish everything, have my car running again and have enough money to pay tuition this summer. Plus I'm only shooting for 450hp so the CP pistons would be a little extreme, although it'd be nice not having to tear my engine down again. Stockers will do me good until I get out of college. And yes, the crank is going to have the new collar put on.

Did I miss something? Is something wrong with the pistons that are in your motor?

Yea, sorry the thread is pretty off topic now
