I was wondering if there is an after market piston I could use with stock 225 rods or with the 198 rods if I can find a set. I plan to use an isky cam,offy 4 barrel intake, edelbrock carb and an MSD ignition. The head will be ported and polished and have bigger valves. Also what valves would make a good oversized valve. Are there roller rockers for the slant six. Thank you.

Wo slow down and tell us what you want in your car that was a lot of stuff to throw at us. Is it a street car /street/strip car /cruser car. or a full drag car. Then some solid opining can be done. Thanks Ron Parker :D

I was wondering since KB-Silvolite makes hypereutectic 2.2/2.5 pistons how hard would it be for them to adjust the tooling a little to give us a decent hypereutectic piston to work with stock rods? Maybe I should call?

That would be cool, if they would do it for a reasonable cost. Surely the weight reduction alone would help!
I found some 198 rods and will be using the silvolites for my new engine.

Well, for my 170 the stock compression distance is fine. We should start calling and see what they'll do for us.

Sorry Ron.

The truck will be used for street/strip. Mostly street.

Aslo truck will have a stock rearend for now and it also has a stock 904 transmission.

That's a business, not a hobby. I'd be very surprised if they had a minimum volume of less than 1000 - that's 167 engines...

I don't think it would work on a 225 rod. They would have to move the pin hole over .325" down in the piston. :shock:

I have a 1980 D-150 Truck and have done some performance mods on it (see text below). There is a vast improvement between the stock 225 and my new performance 225, but the truck is still HEAVY compared to an A body. My next performance 225 will be in a '65 Valiant or the like. I can't wait to unleash a performance Slant Six in a light bodied car. What a HOOT that will be. :twisted:
