I had 95 pistons installed on my 1G big-rod 6-bolt
engine rods while the head was off (since I was in there anyway...). Fowler did very nice work. The rod ends were machined out 0.040" (1mm) to accept the new wrist pin. To keep proper side clearance the rod ends were shaved (narrowed along the pin axis) down 0.100" (2.5mm), otherwise the 95 pistons wouldn't fit over the rod end. Total cost with installing piston rings was just over $100.Total cost for the upgrade: $150 pistons, $100 rings (both Conicelli Mitsu), $100 machining (Fowler), $25 rod bearings (NAPA) = ~$375. Noticeably better bottom end and a smoother transition to boost. Masks my overporting (Doh!) of the turbo intake well. With all of the changes I made, the car now feels like it makes more power at 14psi than the old one ever did at 17psi. Only timeslips will tell. Decent upgrade, but if I had a choice of this or a 16G the 16G would be a no-brainer.
