how so? if its good for 700HP street/strip why wouldnt it be good at 400hp..

JE are great for the street and lighter than CPs

Being warm up friendly would be my concern if it's going to do a lot of street work. A je or cp would be fine but then why would you spend that much money to make 400hp on the street. Any will work fine but a specific realistic target would make for a more accurate decision was my point

Well me personally im aiming for 400-450 rwhp but want to build the block to be able to handle more than that..

I run 800rwhp wiyh my glide and im using arias and they are working sweet

Hahaha same here. I have ACL forgies & Precicion H beam steel conrods. Suppose to be a good combo.

I have JE nittos and prescision rods, your rings/ ring gap would be the determining factor in streetability with forgies, all of them are going to have a rattle when cold you just have to deal with it and get used to it

I have SPS pistons and Argo rods in my motor, they've never caused me grief just everything else!

Who here has Forged Pistons and how long have they lasted? Kms, years, Days....
