I have 55cc AFR 185 heads and a S-trim @10psi

What do you think of these pistons? CR too low?
(9.3 :1 with 54cc heads)

They are the 1st ones on the page, -11cc dish, 508 grams

Or if you know of any cheaper but still high quality forged pistons, lmk!

And this is 302-based, not W-stroker, correct? If so, should be a good combo. Make sure your fuel system is up to snuff!

look to be a nice set of slugs, but are they going in a stock block?

Yep, its a 306.

I have 24's on it now, hoping for some 40's and tuning when I get the $$$

Yeah, its the stock block, but its nowhere near 500hp so I'm not worried about it.

Anybody know of any cheaper ones?

with 185's and 10#'s, your closer to 500 than you think.
