[Fordestes]

Thanks all , Ggmac I see a red mark on the pistons ,that had me curiouse as well , I thought mabe they were a ford failure design or something of that nature , I am going to go ahead and use them , I hated to waste a new set of pistons or mabe set up for failure , never seen a Ford brand three ring aluminum 3-3/16 bore piston till now. I gave away a couple sets of pins a year or so back ,they must have been for these pistons ( shame on me) I never checked these out, I thought all three ring pistons were for 3 1/6 bore, appreciate the input. Flathead murre, I agree with you on the ring and oil cons; I found a couple sets new old replacement (aftermarket rings) to fit the pistons , Do you recommend the tapered heavy pins over the early style pins? or does it really matter? I have an exceptionally heavy accelerator foot at times and don't need any parts flying out the crankcase . Thanks again all .
