I'm not a big fan of JE. However I don't know how thier tolerances are on DSM's compared to Honda.

Jerry uses JE pistons in the mirage. They seem to work fine. The 420a motor I am not too sure about. Im using JE pistons in my stroker motor. Ill talk to Jerry and see where he gets them from.

Gearhead Performance in Dunedin? They cut me a good deal on pistons for my 383. Try Automotive Engineering in Largo, they have a full import counter deal.

Yeah, when I sent my existing block off to get rebuilt I had them put the JE's in but have no idea where they got them from. I am building up a spare block in my spare time "just in case" so its not like I need it asap but am willing to buy them if I get a good deal. LMK
