Thanks for not thinking I'm an idiot for asking if 401 pistons can be fitted into a bored 351. I'm on a quest of rebuilding my 351E - just got the heads/valves all redone at the engine shop - took block in and it checked out OK - now I need pistons of some sort to be fitted to the block - machine shop mentioned custom made. So I have 3 questions - anyone have a set of pistons for sale? - if I went with custom pistons, can I go FLAT top to raise the compression ratio? and I had the cam reground for a little lope, will the extra valve lift canuse problems with different pistons? Thanks for responses!!!
