i need help finding the right piston...i was looking at a QSB 5.9 480 piston or a rv275. some one told me you cant run common rail pistons in a reg 24v due to oil squirter issues can anyone help or point me in the right direction
Thanks in advance guys

no one has any input???

RV275 are a good option, dedicated puller I would probably go with some forged, arias, ross, etc.

I want to drive it on the street some times but still do a good pull with it at the pulls.
Anyone else have any input?
Thanks guys

i just had a set of custom Mahle made. looking for 900hp+

I'm looking at a few dif options
Either rv275's or 03-04's open the bowls up valve relief them and get em coated. I'm looking for that hp range if not more. I guess we will see how the common rail ones run and go from there.

The RV275 piston kit p/n 3800333/334/335 grade A,B,C. Does anyone have just the p/n for the pistons only not the kit with rings and locks.

Thanks
