Thanks. I really appreciate the list you have posted. It will give me some places to call and get quotes.

The thing about this motor is the wrist pin placement which is unique. The 230cid motors (65-67) can use 283 pistons with no problem (so I've been told) but the 250cid is a weird duck.

My motor has never been apart and as of today it runs great. When I take it apart I want to do it once. As I understand forged pistons might be a little overkill but with today's fuels and an uncertain future I would rather spend the money and time now rather than later.
