This would be my first engine buildup. I figure with the L6 combined with forged lightened pistons I'll have a smooth running engine that will be both tough and capable of good RPM. I hope to keep the compression in the 8:1 range. Eventually I hope to run a few pounds of boost with the engine (long term goal) and these pistons will work good with that.
I'm a newbie too and I figure I'll be safer with an assembly that's harder to over rev. That and these should resist detonation so I'm safer that way too. I'm gonna build a 6 to last for a long, long time.
I'm not that sure of any of this so I'm open to suggestions. Do the pistons seem light to anybody. I know lighter is better but 438.1 grams.............
