For a street car under 600hp, I would with the SRP Pro's by JE Pistons. They are 4032 alloy, which requires less clearance in the bore (quieter) and also have skirt coating and a lightweight forging. The .5mm oversize stroker parts only weigh 284 grams. You can buy these from AMS or Buschur.

With your setup, I would suggest you look at Manley, Wiseco or SRP. Any of those will handle the power with out issue, each comes with a complete set of rings, locks and pins and all of them are well proven! If you have any specific questions, please let me know. I'm always happy to help!

SRP is not new, they are made by JE.

They are very similar to there own design but use the lighter 4032 material. 600-700 HP is no problem for this piston.

Hope this helps!

The SRP Pistons won't be noisy. They have skirt coating and are made from 4032 alloy so require less clearance than other pistons. For your car, these should be perfect. The Wiseco's are 2618 alloy, but I have heard they are still quiet.
