I got a '94 that is in the process of a engine re-build.
After pulling a the heads for what seemed a routine blown head gasket,I saw that one of the pistons had a hole burn't thru it.
So,it is off to the machine shop for a thorough rebuild.
The question for those who've BTDT.is which type of pistons to use.
Hyper-u's are available I know.FedMog#H675CP + rings E4714.
But,they are pretty much the same as the stock ones,and I got one melted.
Are forged pistons the better choice for longetivity?I'm not really concerned about price.What I don't want is to have to go thru another re-build 2,3,or 4 years down the road.
Also,what brand names manufacture forged pistons for the SC,ie.Jahns,KB,TRW,Wiseco or any others?
And,lastly does anyone have any part#'s for any manufacturers?Just to save on all the phone calls asking.
