eagles will be fine. cp, ross, je, wiseco and a few others are all good choices. i would stay away from cast pistons

I am running SRP pistons on Eagle rods, with JE ring set. Arp rod and head bolts. You are gonna have to spend a a couple hundred bucks to get a descent set of pistons, don't skimp out.
