How much power are u planning on making ? If u plan on making more then 750whp i would deff install upgraded wrist pins for the price of the wrist pins and the peace of mind i would deff install them , dont get me wrong i have seen some people making over 800 but i personally wouldnt take that chance.

These were off the shelf pistons that were installed back in late 2008 and there havent been any issues, we'll see what 2010 brings

I have always ran off the shelf CP Pistons with standard wrist pins. I just made 1026. I have never had an issue...

I will get upgraded wrist pins on my next set, whenever that is.
