Default Re: Speedway’s Valve Train Components

We still don't know what the application is. This migh be a dailey driver that doesn't see 3 k except when clinbing the interstate ramp. The cost of this stuff is getting out of hand, even for the bad stuff.

I guess that my point. Why settle for a piston that uses old technology when a little more money gets you a lighter, stronger, piston that uses modern technology?

It's only money. Can't take it with you. Haha!

Great point Ron! We're all pontificating about various piston/ring combinations and have on clue on the application, the budget, the goals, etc.. But Hey - during lockdown we ALL tend to babble too much.
