Message: [QUOTE="alwaysdiesel, post: 1538038, member: 14250"] Everything is coming along good, got almost all my parts ordered and block/heads are finished now. Pretty well stuck to my original plan, WDI 205/30s, Gear*ead tunes, Kc stage 2, BD mani's, Colt stage 2 cam, RCD valve springs, Oringed heads, pushrods...etc etc Machine shop just finished up with everything so I'll be picking it up on Monday, but I had some questions about pistons. A few cylinders had 0.005-0.007" wear and a deeper gouge made them bore 0.020" over. Mahle .020" pistons run about $900 a set, so I was thinking of spending a little more and going coated, possibly 0.050" flycut since I am running a bigger cam, I know it isn't necessary but they don't cost much more. I know the coating helps dissipate the heat. Can anyone shed some light, what is the limit for stock pistons? [/QUOTE]
