I'd personally go for Mahle pistons and Carillo rods

Mahle clevite77 bearings!

As an alternative where you are, I'm running Cunningham (USA) rods and pistons known for making NASCAR parts.

But they'd be running stock compression.

JE or CP pistons personally.

So you saying use stock compression on a 400 whp car which is approx 500 crank?

Not for me, but pays your money takes your choice

I measured the combustion chamber, head gasget and swept volume and worked out the CR of my ABY which came to 8.8:1.

If thet is too high for your petrol, get the pistons pocketed and save some money

Whats the common price range for aftermarket pistons? The cheapest i have found in north america was $1100 US is that right? They were JE Pistons by the way. Wich online sites have pistons for sale for our cars ?
