Lockjaw Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 You can get them from any piston maker, ie Ross, JE, Arias, ect, you just need to send them one of yours so they get the measurements right. You will likely have to get the small ends of your rods bushed for floating pistons pins, and should let the piston maker send you the pins BEFORE getting that done. There is alot of info out there concerning forged pistons, the search fucntion, if its working, should really help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srgunz Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 If yours is a street motor, I would stay away from forged. Not necessary and too expensive. I would snap these up if they still have them. They are .030 over. 240Z O/S pistons Assuming you have a L24 that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAW Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Maybe I missed something, but is that straight 6 of yours an L24 or an L28 bore? Sterling pistons make an L28 oversize piston with a compression ht. compatible with the longer L24 rod (133mm). These are cast pistons.

afterdarkZ Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 If you want custom forged pistons, try BRC Performance. Ordered a set about two years ago when I rebuilt my friends engine and they were by far the cheapest I could find. Quite a few Z31 guys have ordered from them and everyone has been happy with the quality. Not sure if their prices are the same but they were about $475 for 6. Turnaround time is about 3 weeks.
