I am going to apologize before hand on the lengthy post.


The image above is a pic of the pistons in my motor, I dont know what brand they are or any of that good stuff. The only thing I know is from what I saw. They are 4.04" pistons with out valve reliefs, Can anyone Identify them? I had plans of putting better heads and maybe a better cam but with the pistons the way they are I would either have to notch them or buy new ones.


Thanks for your time

How hard is it to notch the pistons, and should I wait to do it until I get new heads?
