I really like the idea of a de-stroked 4G64 but i find it concerning that a lot of people dont run it and i haven't really read anything spectacular about it. Plus if i did go bigger then the 2.0 i would probably get the AMS 2.3RR since it is probably one of the most reliable modified motors i have ever seen. Either way i like revs more then displacement

I would be surprised to see you buy 'used' pistons. Especially seeing that these are internal components. Having an unsure feeling if the proper heat cycles were taken before running these pistons hard. Not that 150 miles is a lot, but what kind of "150 miles" were driven? I am not optimistic going used on internals unless I personaly know the person and their car. Tough call to make going used. Less expensive, yes. But the thought of being misinformed on something such as these would drive me to murder someone. He went from a spun bearing issue straight to a 2.3 stroker....hmmmm. Makes me think twice what these pistons have really seen. Just my oppinion though.

i think you could get away with 9.5:1. it would be a really nice street car. add a little meth and then you have a track monster

citibank sucks my rooster. what a bunch of donkies.

they applied a payment to the wrong account, caused me to incur late fees, said they were going to fix it, screwed up fixing it, and now are supposedly fixing it again.

what is wrong with your coworkers?

at least they were pleasant to deal with.....
