whats total price for kit??

 

$240

 

I would like to see if anyone had any experience with these also. That's a heck of a price.

 

same here... where can you pick this up at??? seems real good for the price.

 

post this in the f/i forum.

 

i know it looks real good.....thats why i was wonderin bout the price.....its on ebay $240 with free shipping....

 

Has anybody tried using those low compression cast pistons from nippon? i sent an email to the seller on ebay and they can have the pistons machined for full floating pins for an extra $40. It seems like a great deal to me. i could have $500 in the bottom end. I am on a zero budget. JW if anyone has had any issues.

 

i think im going to order a set of these, i cant find any bad reviews online either!
