Hey guys!

I have two blocks just chillen at home, so I've decided to finally do something and tore one apart completely. It seems to be in decent shape still so I want to machine it (bore the cylinders & deck the top) so its all purdy again and ready to be built up!

The only thing is, to bore the cylinders I need to get my pistons first so they can bore it for them to fit. So my question is...whats everyones recommendations for a decent set of forged pistons?

Should I go and get an oversized piston? or stick closer to stock size and just go forged? I know the JE forged pistons are common in lots of builds.

HELP PLEASE!

Thanks in advance.
