I have built motors for years and I have never heard of such a gaggle from a manufacturer. I think perhaps Diamond should be on the Probetalk black list. There is absolutely no excuse for so many screw ups. I am glad that I wasn't in on this BB. So why have people decided to go with Diamond when Wiseco pistons has already been making pistons for the KL motor with Millenia "S" rods? The design is already on file and already proven. I don't believe that Wiseco would have made this grand of a screw up folley. Since I have built many race engines I can tell you from what I see that those pistons wouldn't have flown with any racing group whatsoever. Any race group would have boxed em up and thrown em back at Diamond. And their response that a gram of difference is like a spoon of oil and that a gram doesn't make any difference in a piston is total B/S. A company with a good reputation would never have made that statement if they wanted to continue doing business. If the screw ups continue I would highly recommend boxing all pistons up and sending them back for complete refund to include original shipping and return shipping. And if they refuse to satisfy then it would be time for a class action law suit. I would never put a crap set of pistons like that in one of my engines. I saw the photos that someone posted and there is a huge difference. They obviously can't get things right the first time nor the second nor the third. Black list them from Probetalk!
P.S. I believe the Wiseco info for 8.7:1 forged pistons is as below:
pistons 013392408
chrome plated wrist pin S527
RING SET 3347XC
