Re: Forged Pistons for Turbo Build

Happy to help spend. The other thing about aftermarket forged rods are that they have "free floating" piston pins meaning they are not pressed into the rod as are the stock rods are. If you go forged rods make sure they work with your new pistons. The piston pin needs to be retained by clips that have grooves machined into the piston. I no problem with Summit products. I've bought thousands of dollars of stuff from them over the years but I would recommend a LS engine shop for parts. Most have very good prices on engine parts.
