Glen,
I've had Venolia & Jahns custom build pistons for turbo engines over the
years; equal success with both. They'll work from your specifications;
dish, cam grind, etc. Full-float's my choice.
I've broken piston crowns,skirts, lands and ringsl. ALSO...consider your
choice of pins. I've busted those as well...until I went with tapered-wall.
No problems after than.
Get ready to get off the dime!!!!
Good luck.
WFO Herb
