is it worth it???

i found pistons for our engines with compression bumped up to 9.5:1

how much more power would these bring me????

guesstimate!!!

what kinda compression do stock 3.4's come with?

cuz if i go with one of them, then this might not be worth the trouble

How much are they? It might wind up being cheaper to get the heads shaved a bit... of course, then you need the intake manifold shaved a bit as well...
