Your stock clutch will slip with 300. Sometimes less than that. 300 is the max.

Did you even look at the site? It never says JE pistons. here is what my kit came with Top Line basic engine rebuild kit The kit includes: • 8.0:1 4G63 pistons • Rod bearings • Mains • B/S Bearing • Freeze plugs • 4G63 Timing Belt • 4G63 B/S Belt • Full Engine Gasket Set • Front case cover • Oil pump gears Please specify what bearing used in the rebuild kit: Standard, 10 over, 20 over. Also please specify what pistons are used: Standard, 20 over, 40 over.

Slowboy also gave me a cosmetic head gasket for 60 buck too. shipping was fast.

Ya but the stock pistons are good up to 400 hp and I dont think he is looking to rule the world with his car. So in that case for 600 bucks, you get a lowe compression with a stong ring seal, new bearings, hg, oil pump... thats the corn right there, a re ring kit alone is 300 bucks... and that only comes with the rings, head gasket and other misc crap that you need.
