Title: What flat top piston is the one of choice?
Post by: electrowoman on September 18, 2009, 01:45:40 PM

We're going to build up our other spare engine 1974 460.   I have H beam rods so I'll
need free floater pistons.    I want flat tops to keep compression in check.

Which one's do you guys like?  remember, free floaters.
