273 piston options

This is very interesting.
Is there any way we could work together here? Are you getting 0.030” over pistons then? What will be the specs?
I’ll gladly cover some of the cost if I can piggyback off the work you’ve put in.
Mind if I give you a call later?
Send me a PM with your number in that case.

We haven't settled on final piston specs yet, and yep.....030's. We have to make one more cut on the 302 heads, and then he can do all the math and tell the dude at Race Tech what we need. I have a set of Cometic head gaskets that have a bore size of 4.040 and a compressed thickness of .027 . We're shooting for around 9.0 to no more than 9.5 compression. I just want something with enough power to get out of its own way without zinging it out of its mind, and still get good gas mileage for what it is. I'll shoot you a PM when we get the specs set. They will be flat tops with 2 valve reliefs. If the same specs work out for you, then you can call them and ask for the same things.
