Testing interest in a set of .030" over TRW forged pistons with the stock rods attached. Came out of a motor with 3200 miles on it. Blew head gaskets :mad: I am upgrading to H-beem rods which require different pistons. If anyone is interested, how much could i get for these? What is a fair price? They are VERY clean. If someone can tell me how to put a picture up here i will do so . Or you can e-mail me at tdigs@hotmail.com and i will send you a pic. Thanks.
 
Why do H-beam rods require differnet pistons, are the wrist pins different size?

Same size but the H-beem rods are full floating which require Spiro locks on the pistons which the TRW's do not have.
 
I may be interested . I dont want to low Ball you, I hate when people do it to me. If you will e mail me direct at Fortune628@aol.com with how much you want for then, I will let you know if Im interested. thanks for your time.

Another. They are covered in oil to prevent rust.

The price is not unreasonable. The used rods are worth $50+. The pistons new were in the $350-$450 range. If you have ARP bolts, that's a few more $$. Keep them listed, someone is going to need a set for a good stock rebuild. Brian

I think summit sells the pistons new for about $280.
Really? I dont know im just seeing if they are worth anything to any one. Im open to offers as i do not know what they are worth. I want them out of my room.
 
pistons

i just bought a set of e-bay for $150.00 rods and pistons. they have around 10,000 miles on them. so that will give you an idea. i would not take less than 200.00 for them if they was mine. but if i was going to sell them i would clean the carbon off them first.
 
I was going to glass bead and polish them like new but ide have to press teh pins out. I think it would be easier for someone to get them all together already. I dont know. Let me know what you guys would prefer. I guess 200 + shipping would be fair.
