Default Need .040 stocked blower piston... Help.

I need a blower piston in a 454 block with a 6.385 rod @ .040 over and JE or SRP has to do them custom. Does anybody here know of a manufacturer they like other than JE that makes a .040 oversize of the shelf?

Sprague,

100% correct, I read pistons, not piston.

If you are replacing only 1 piston you will need a direct replacement not only for weight but material compatability (thermal expansion), ring sizing etc.
