I'm a newby here and having a hard time finding a dealer or individual whohas a set of new ca pistons(stock bore),and rings... I've searched and seen a few members who can get pistons, but also wondering if anyone knows of dealers who sell this stuff. I know in the faq section it refers to the pulsar and how to refer to that when gettting replacement parts(do the pistons still apply?)... anyways any suggestions would help. thanks

If you are going to buy new stock pistons, why don't you just get forged aftermarket ones? All that labor and effort, may as well spend a LITTLE more and have some added safety and security. I dunno, that's just me...

To be honest with u i have been wavering on the issue a lot, and I have heard good things about the CP forged pistons. Ahh hell, might as well go with them.. like you said added insurance. Who knows might decide to up the power level down the road more than i anticipated in the first place, do it right the first time and i won't have to worry about it.
