Well the price goes up in 05 so I would say by the end of the month.
I think the Ross piston deal had to have the skirt shaved or something. I'm not quite sure.

Just to let you guys know I was informed of an increase in price after the new year.
Also NVSVT if you can get your car to Phoenix there is almost nothing we can't do to your contour(s). It's only about 5 hours from Vegas.

guys these are worth it
mine have worked well in Houston summers at 16psi, no problems. . .no piston slap, nothing. . .I originally got these pistons because the GB needed one extra person, had no plans of turbo charging, but lemme tell ya, well worth it. . .

Pretend you are trying to explain this to a Grade 8 student taking shop class:
1. What are the advantages of these pistons &
2. What is the re/re labour involved?

1. What are the advantages of these pistons for forced induction, they are much stronger than stock and can handle alot more boost. even for nitrous they can handle alot more than stock. not to mention you can lower compression for a turbo or supercharger, or raise it for n/a or nitrous 2. What is the re/re labour involved? removing the engine would be the easiest way by far. gotta take the timing chains off, cams out, heads off, then take the rods and pistons out. install new pistons to rod, and put rod/piston back in car. new rod bearings needed along with new rod bolts and new head bolts. basically very expensive
