Bottom line goal is to spin the engine to 7500+ rpms and not have it come apart.
My short list of requirements for both pistons and rods. (full floating pin)
100% American sourced and made.
Quiet in operation.
no oddball/mfg specific components. IE wiseco special rings ect.
price isnt a concern, I want to do it once and get it right the first time around.
right now I'm leaning towards oliver rods and diamond pistons, but that could change.
