Quick question, would this be an upgrade worth making? I am at the 300whp level now. My question is would this kit be little more than just making what I have more reliable or could I put this in and squeeze say another 100whp out of my motor? Common school of thought is stock LS motor is good for 300whp which I have now, could this be installed and I could go up to 400whp with same level of reliability? Just curious to hear thoughts from people who know more than me about this kind of thing. No specific goals, I just ran across this and it got me thinking.

Honestly I would do some forged pistons too. I dont know how Scat is with quality control, but I know theyre basically the same forging as Eagle

Scat Rods are made by Probe

their H Beams arent too shabby. But then again, you can get eagles for 289.

Probe makes pistons also for the Bseries.


I would be cautious as whoever posted that ebay listing didnt post up the CC of the piston and other much needed details.

you could be getting a mystery grab bag.

I didnt know Nippon was making pistons again. Its been years since Ive heard the name. Anyone can print a decal and slap it on a white box.

IDK if I would trust pistons coming from china in a plain white box.

Your search abilities will have to come into play.

I just did a search and found a set for 269

Not really anymore. that was years past. Best to forget about the $289 rods.

It was an ebay listing for new ones.. they already sold.

If you searched you might have found them in time. But you want to come on here and bitch and complain. I built my engine with a **** ton of searching and finding deals. I suggest you do the same.


Just to help you out, heres the part number to narrow your search results: crs5394a3d

More jackassery! Pull your skirt down..

Lord Mac guess you're right again!

Well since you want to bring up old ****, It was the machine shop who didnt do the proper work when I was told that the work was done. I had to get another shop to fix it.

Im not even going to point out the irony here on the "jackassery" as your too lazy to search and find a better deal and come on here and bitch and complain. I see you finally used your computer for something useful.
IDK, but 312 is still pretty cheap!

Another woman with a paper ******* on HT!

Wiesco Pistons and Eagle Rod combo for $754.. Only $200 more than OP's Nippon Piston and Scat rods..

Or $779 with Wiesco Pistons and Manley Rods

or $869 for CP Pistons and Eagle Rods

Either way for $200 bucks difference it's an easy choice in my book. Oh and any time I called Real Street for an order over the phone I also got like 5 to 10% off of the internet price.
