Contact weisco like I said, custom pistons do not cost as much as you think.

I have a maximum of $125 to spend on pistons and i just taked a guy with brand new vitara pistons/pins/rings down to $100, so unless weisco can match that, im going with those

Well you can go with those but you will know that you are putting you engine together with parts that are not going to warrent "building" your engine. IMO if you have it tore apart save up the money and do it with parts that are known to work. Not saying the ones you picked will not be ok and work fine but your ability to make power will be dampered by your choice in parts. If you do it do it right the first time so you are at ease later down the road.

I just dont have the time to do that. My dad has sacrificed his car so i can get to school, so for the past 3 weeks, plus as long as it takes to put this back together, all he does is sit 2 counties over in his house watching tv. I have to drive up there once a week to take him groceries just so he can eat. So, im not going to make him wait while i save up hundreds of dollars, i already feel bad enough stranding him in his own house.
