If I'm not correct wouldn't it depend on the heads? I wanted to do a TFS track heat top end kit when I build the motor. Would one option work better than the other? Still new to some of this stuff lol I'd imagine so<br /><br />Thanks <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>79 cobra</b> <br /><small>Member # 10137</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2014,2,28,6,25,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Dished pistons = low compression<br /><br />flat top pistons =mid to high compression<br /><br />dome pistons=high compression <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Secnd2nun64</b> <br /><small>Member # 1431</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2014,2,28,6,33,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Make sure the pistons you pick have valve reliefs for the heads you want to run. Trickflows valve setup is unique. You can get away with not matching the valve reliefs on certain pistons to your heads with a smaller cam. What's the fun in that though! <img border="0" alt="[burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
