mike, how much for 283 std bore size(.090 over) with a .927 wrist pin? outside the box as usual. john
Mike I have talked to you befoe about this. I am giving it serious thought as I have the TA roller and I think I will have to cut my current cast flat tops some to use this cam as my deck is at .000, My problem is my engine is at .040 now and I don't want to go larger and would hope that the skirt clearance would be close.

Which is 0.075 taller than the factory pistons I am pretty sure. And much taller than most aftermarket pistons which tend to be lower than stock.
Just to give you a balpark $ we paid about $800 a set for the last run of Diamonds. VERY good quality!!!
I paid about $800 for my Venolias also by the time you counted in the extras. They were not slipper style though and did have thicker crowns for the blower motor. 3/4" wrist pins and custom compression height. Teflon buttons (wouldn't do that again, they are heavy.) Custom dish. Next time I'll go for slipper style. Jim
So what is the lead time on the 9.6 comp pistons? My 350 is at the machine shop now, will probably ordering pistons next week, are these available now?
This is an old post. Mike has retired. Look at buyracingparts.com Scott Brown is making Pistons. Nice stuff . I’m not sure if he has them in stock so email him soon to find out wait times. Mine where about 2. Months. But they where custom pin and size
These were recommended to me with my current 350 build. https://www.buyracingparts.com/pist...-pistons-3898-bore-3622-stroke-6125-rods.html
https://www.buyracingparts.com/pist...totec-forged-350-buick-dished-piston-kit.html LS stuff requires long rods.
Because they raised the price on the Buick pistons, those LS AutoTec pistons would work as a base for a sbb 350 piston, would just need to change the diameter and the compression distance. They raised the sbb piston price because they are now having the stupid Buick .940" wristpins made which increased the price another $50! If someone wants to do a stroker with the nascar take out rods they don't need those $50 extra costing wristpins so those LS pistons are a way around not having to pay for those Buick only pins if you are not going to use them anyway.
