does anyone know of any companies that do a high comp piston for a 4L?

I know JMM do them, but the price they charge is drug money just shy of $1500.

so if anyone has any suggestions it'd be much appreciated.

Forged or cast?

If those JMM ones are forged that's a good price.

yeah they are, forged mahle pistons matey.

I just want to up the comp so I can run a large cam, and have most of my hp up top, seeing as my shitta is only a toy for the strip low down torque isnt really needed.

i've got 3 different setups planned over 2 engines for this piece of shit (shhh dont tell the gf lol) so just sussing out my options.

$1500 is a good price for pistons then.

How high compression are you after ?

We get some nice high comp flat top forgies for under a grand, but when we want ultra high, we get them made.
