[Fot] Piston question

[vfracing at aol.com]

Dave;
Those pistons are all stock dimensions with respect to the compression height (distance from the center of the wrist pin to the piston crown). As I recall in the article about your car, your rods are about 1/2 inch longer than stock and hence use a piston with the wrist pin higher up into the piston.  If you intend to use the long roads, the Moss pistons won't work.
Racetorations has some very robust 87 mm liner that would be good to use with some nice custom pistons....

Anyone had experience with either the 87 or 89mm Piston set from Moss? I think my motor currently has 87 but will not know for sure until we crack it open hopefully this week.
