scat stuff is good, eagle is good - so whatever you find thats the best deal consisting of parts made by either or and you'll be good.

you'll want either speed pro (what used to be trw), probe, je, or wiesco pistons - stay away from the keith blacks cause they are not forged.

Eagle has had a lot of issues lately with their finished product. There are lots of stories of cranks needing to be turned 10/10 out of the box, people building motors and not being able to turn them over by hand, etc. Their in house machining has really taken a dump. This can be proven with the ease of buying a factory blem from them directly.

In the base model Scat forged piston kits, they come with KB forged pistons. You have to specifically request them from me if you want them. I only stock kits with upgraded Probe pistons.

Canfield doesn't make a 190. It's a 195.

thats cool, thats the way it SHOULD be. i wouldnt have a problem using KB's in a mild street performance build but anything crazy and forged are the way to go.

the forged TRW's i am using are cirka 1979/1980 and i know they are prolly heavy as hell but i dont really care cause i know they are built like a brick ****house LOL. i forget the part number but you prolly got the sealed power book i think they still make em under the new name. they are the .440 dome .030 302 slugs.
