I have a customer looking for .030 over 421 pistons. I'm having trouble locating them. Does anybody know of a set or have a set?

Try Ross or BME, both good pistons and they'll make anything you want.

Here's a link with some others as well.

Might try Ken (Pontiac Dude) as he is offering custom forged pistons for $465 and up if your looking for forged.

KB-Silvolite makes 428 pistons, I dont know if there would be issues with the valve notchs which are slightly different from 421

BVR brings up a good question. What heads are being used with this engine?

Thanks for the responses. I'll try those and let you know what I find. I'm using the original heads, so I need a piston with a dish to lower the compression ratio. I'm looking for about 9.5 to 1. Thanks.

I have a set of used standard size TRW 428 pistons. About 1000 miles of street driving. They have a factory dish of about 8cc and 4 valve notches. I can cnc mill in more dish area if you want. They are on rods. $175 with custom dish milled in. e-mail is tmc@netins.net
