P Brand U New Ross N Stroker K Pistons E For D Sale

Due to a shipping error, I ended up with a set of brand new, standard bore, AMS-spec Ross stroker pistons. They are $600 on the AMS website. I'll let them go for $300. Here is a pic:

can you say "SOLD"

The cool part is that both Smoggy and I are getting our just deserts because we are both missing our SoCal Dyno day. He makes a little cash and I get some cheap pistons.

NO ...

you need to upgrade your valve train to be able to rev past 8K. You should also probably think about getting rods and eliminating your balance shaft if you're serious about revving that high...

Damn, that's a good deal - you should have sold them to ME three weeks ago, Smoggy!

Yes, people, that was my lame attempt at humor. Those pistons were the rightful property of AMS. I had already mailed them back to AMS before starting this thread. I figured it would be funny to see Eric or Martin jump in here and say "Hey, dickwad, those pistons belong to us."

Then I could reply:
"You got PUNKED" and let them know about the joke and let them know that I had already mailed them back.
