Yes, We do drop in pistons and rods. This is something we use to do on low mileage Evos where the cylinders could just be honed and didn't need to be bored. Most of the Evos that come in here these days are high mileage vehicles that need to be bored .020. It is possible if you have a very low mileage motor.

20,000 defintely is low mileage! I did my dropin last week on 19,000 miles and my stock internals were perfect! I didn't even know that the stock pistons have a skirt coating until I saw mine and it's was bearly removed from the skirts!
