    I am pulling apart my motor to replace some pistons. I want to know who makes the best F/I pistons for are cars and what the price would be for them and a custom cam for a rather large blower. Thanks

    I'd go with Diamond or CP pistons. I'd look at the HHP Stage 4 cam with a big blower.

    Yes, or JE...

    Make sure that when you have the cam ground to specify what blower you have. They will tell you what specs will work best for your build.

    I am waiting for the kenny bell twin screw and ENT to put 20 pounds of boost threw it. Do you think the stage 4 cam would fit my needs. I am thinking dimond pistons next question who would u order the pistons from and what would they cost

    JE is a very reputable piston manufacturer as well as the others mentioned. JE has very specific piston to wall tolerances as well as other tolerances concerning chamfering that must be addressed for their piston to work properly. A machinist not following these specific guidelines when performing the necessary machine work will cause premature failure of the piston.

    At the top. There pistons are awesome. Had them im my Harleys and motocross bikes in extreme conditions and NEVER one failure. I know many car guys that run them locally and Professionally and have nothing but good things to say.
