    Wouldn't worry about it, not seen any mention of it since. Will add screenshots if I do find it.

    Another thing I need help with.......

    What's decent brands of Pistons?

    Plan to go with either CP, Arias or wiseco in no particular order. It's depend and more on who does the closest comp ratio to 10:1

    Sweet, thanks for the input,

    Building myself so it's whatever is most transparent when it comes to piston to bore clearance, ring gaps, etc

    Also, found the guy who had LMA fail...... They tend to fail, when you don't re-insert them. VTC lobe on cam smashed itself to pieces. Certainly won't be doing that!

    I have never heard of Arias, but I know Wiseco and CP. Whichever you choose, I believe in matching the rods to the pistons. I think either company will make you happy.

    I have eagle rods already to go, they decent? Reluctant to swap em unless they are dogshit.

    When you say matching you mean weigh everything and make as close to equal sets as you can yes?

    Matching weight yes. And eagles are fine. I used to hate them only because they were cheap. But I've never owned a set. A friend of mine Boyle morphine made 807whp on them and then he sold the car. The next owner made 858whp same motor and same old eagle rods.
