Re: Badger pistons the pro's and cons....

[Steven Holekamp <holekamp@xxxxxxx>]

if you build you motor perfect with  tight piston clearances, break it in 
right, always have good fuel, never advance the timing to far, never let it 
run lean, and don't overheat it you will probably be fine with cast 
pistons(badger or anybody else)

Of course it you miss a gear  or accidentally downshift earlier than you 
should and over rev it or screw up anything I mentioned above you will wish 
you had spent some money, if you building a stocker put  stock cast parts 
in it, If you are building something that will allow you to have fun on 
friday night, that costs extra(one way or another)

I would rather have factory amc piston than badgers, they are the cheapest 
thing you can buy, they are for rebuild factories churning out 
replacement  motors for worn out daily drivers

Buy the best and cry only once,
