Pistons

Hello,

I am rebuilding my engine again and would like some suggestions on what pistons to get or if I should kept the stock ones. I do have a budget, so nothing too expensive.
Its a supercharged 305 TPI. Also any suggestion for a manifold?

If you plan on doing nitrous or have even given it a thought in the past definately go with forged pistons I bought mine from jegs they are sealed power part no. L2256F they were only $27 each not too bad of a price they make a compression ratio of 9.7:1 on an engine with 64cc heads.

With a supercharged engine you want to go with a lowercompression piston.
