Re: In need of 283 .030 pistons

It might be cheaper to have the block decked... Dial in your compression ratio by decking to the preferred compression ratio relative to your piston volumes and head gasket selection. What heads are you running and do they have good squench potential given your piston surface characteristics? Good luck, brother! I hope your hay hauler gets back up and running stronger than ever before sloppy weather hits!
