Re: [AMC-list] 360 Pistons, time to take action

It doesn't look good for the hypereutectic pistons for 360s, unless we get
more inquiries. I sent an email out to Glen. Below is his response.

Hi Armand,
We don't have any plans for a 360 AMC piston. I have a stock replacement in
the Silvolite OE aftermarket brand. It has a large dish at 3.600 diameter
with a depth of .190 which equates to a 32.5cc displacement. The bore size
and wrist pin size is the deferring factors along with the high costs of
mold development. I would have to have a lot of interest in this
application, what I mean is a market to sell it so I can justify producing
it.
Take care, Glen
