What is the compression ratio?  I used the hypereutectic on my rebuild
but that was my machinist's choice.  I think it had something to do with
the deal he got.  Forged pistons would only be necessary for a racing
application as far as I am concerned.  The cast pistons should not be a
problem unless you plan to drive it real hard.  Lets remember that cast
pistons are what goes into all American manufactured new cars.
