RE: HEADS AND CAM COMBO

Your def need new pistons. I believe the stock ones are only good for up to .500 lift. Someone correct me if I am wrong please.

umm....... umm...... why do people make stuff up like this?

boss 302's were 2 piece rear main seal cranks so obviously the crank isnt a boss.
boss 302's had special pistons for use with canted valve cleveland style heads.
