Doing a full rebuild of the C code. Need new pistons and am coming to the US so will get a set there (right now you can't find a set of 0.030 over for a 289 anywhere in Australia, some shipping strike/issue)
Going to be a very stock build. Crane 260-H-2 cam, very close to OEM spec, original block @ 0.030 0ver, stock heads, intake/exh manifolds, etc. C4.
Sealed Power flat tops, Mahle, Keith Black, or..??? Looking at cast, coated hypereutectics, don't think the cost of forged is worth it for a 200Hp build... some have 2 reliefs, some 4, slightly lower compression with 4, but a result that is even remotely noticeable?
Recommendations?
