Default Re: Looking for 5.0 stocker buildup advice

Thanks SSDiv6.

I also have a rookie type question about stocker pistons. I’ve read the rulebook, blueprint guide, and approved piston list for the 302 ford (1988). I assume you can use factory pistons (ie. Ford part numbered TRW pistons) provided they are OE for your application. However, I don’t find the part number listed anywhere in the blueprint guide. Also, since Ford no longer has the part and it has been changed up to a different part number… can you run the retrofit part or not?

Any input appreciated…just trying to piece together a stocker on a beginners budget

I assume that running a piston that meets the blueprint criteria but is not on the approved list is going to be a major problem - correct?
