What pistons have some of you guys used during your LT1 rebuilds. My motor is torn done now and getting checked. I want to punch it .30 over and give it a good forged piston that will hold up under a blower later. I do not want to change compression, just give it a little better piston.

thanks

I went with SRP FT w/2 valve releifs, they have been going strong now for 5 years. The first 2 years I used a 150 shot of nitrous on them and no problems, then about 1 year ago I broke the timing chain and all the exhaust valves pounded against the pistons, they were completely unhurt except for a scratch whree the valve hit them. I replaced the cam , chain and put on AFR heads and it runs fine 1 year later.
