Re: Piston Preference's....? Wiseco -vs- Other's?
 

I'm going with Wiseco's on my car. I used to ride dirtbikes a lot and it always seemed to me that the wiseco pistons on the bike would last longer and the motor would just feel better after being rebuilt. i'd say all of their pistons have would have same quality.

Re: Piston Preference's....? Wiseco -vs- Other's?
 

srp's are just fine. but i would never stay stock bore. piston/wall clearances are not right if you do that.

Re: Piston Preference's....? Wiseco -vs- Other's?
 

I have to agree with ALL of you guy's about the SRP's. Those Bastards are LOOSE as hell! Every time I started my car up after it cooled down a bit I'd hear tick tick tick tick and when I pulled the head and looked at em I could literly put my fingers on the top of the pistons and "wobble" them front to back in the bore and they too were Std. sized pistons. I used Wiseco in 2 other builds I've done and they just look,feel,and are just nicer quality. I also noticed that they are better designed and braced from the bottom side than my old SRP's were. I talked to the Owner of Wiseco once and he was telling me how Larry the owner of Endyn that make's the Rollerwave pistons, buy's the pistons from them at Wiseco and then just polish's out the sharper corners and angle's on the pistons to let flame travel be smoother. Then put's the Rollerwave name on it and sell's em out. Don't worry anyone with SRP's, I'm not saying your motor is going to blow up with them. I just personally noticed the quality difference myself between them and the Wiseco's

Re: Piston Preference's....? Wiseco -vs- Other's?
 

there are other spec changes on the rollerwave piston besides smoothing. but i did the same to my wisecos i scotch brite the hell out of the sharp edges and then coated them they look hella sexy. i've had srp and wiseco side by side and its wiseco for teh win!
