Re: {Chrysler 300} 413 pistons.

Stock pistons were never forged. They require more clearance than cast pistons, and are not needed for production engines. 

If it's a bad enough ridge, it needs to be bored to the next oversize. I've run engines with a light ridge and new rings with no problems.

The original pistons were not forged?

Must you not remove ridges if installing new rings?

Hi JY,

The pistons you refer to are "Rebuilders Choice". My machine shop uses them. They are decent pistons. Stay away from forged, unless you like noise, or are going racing. Totally not needed for a street car. Ridge reamers, like John said are worthless. They don't cut straight when they do cut at all. I think the high nickel content in our blocks is part to blame for this.

Hi everybody.

Anybody ever bought pistons from Old Parts Source?

If so, product o.k?

I need pistons/rings to rebuilt my 300G 413...

Feedback appreciated.

Thanks!
