Message: [QUOTE="Zeb, post: 1538051, member: 30304"] The money you spend on coating on the pistons is an absolute waste, imo. If you were to have the motor apart in a couple thousand miles, you absolutely couldn’t tell they were coated. As far as fly cuts, I prefer to avoid them on a small cam. On a larger cam, (Stage 3 or 4 it’s almost impossible to avoid it). I prefer to keep the top of the piston flat. I usually take 0.015”-0.20” off the top of the piston (depending on deck height, etc) and roll the bowl lip back, but don’t totally eliminate it. Stock pistons are plenty strong enough for 700-800 hp. Nitrous, a lot of rpm, or something else stupid is what’ll kill them. [/QUOTE]
