In case you didnt know trying to run stock h22 pstons in steal sleeves will not work trust me ive tried it lol. You will get about 2000 miles then a burnt piston. If you did know then sorry just trying to help.

I also read people running them with no problem thats why i tried it . After three sets and three different clearences because i felt like they may have been a little tight i called golden eagle they assured me they will not run in there blocks and i beleive them because i tried it three times lol . I replaced the stock type s pistons with forged cp pistons and have 15,000 miles with a tone of low 12 second track passes on them no pronlem. I got the car tunned with every set of stock pistons they still messed up . I have no idea what the problem is maybe they will run in stock sleeves but accoeding to golden eagle and me trying they want run in there sleeves good luck. Also im thinking about running some f20b pistons in a spare f23 build im doing you may wanna check in to that. Also h22 pistons on f23 crank and rods stick up about 48 thousanths out the block and are over 14.1 compression with out cutting them just in case somebody was wondering.
