bottom end strength

If I was to add 10.2:1 hyp. pistons to my stock L98 bottom could it handle it? Revving will not go past 6000 rpm. The bottom end will be refreshed when putting in the pistons.

Any tips bring em on!

No problem. Use ARP rod bolts in the rebuild. Resizing the big ends not a bad idea, either.

Why is this in the "Motor Swap" forum?
