I ordered a set of Speed Pro 4.8 flat tops from Summit. Long story short they only sent me one of the 8 I ordered and upon calling them I find out that they only have 6 more in stock and dont plan on ordering anymore since they arent a commonly ordered item. I would have to wait (alot longer than I want) to get the last piston so I have to find another source (easier said than done since most only offer sets lol) that will sell me the final piston I need.

Love this.

Shows how much can be done with hard work and perseverence.

Just out of curiousity, how far out of the hole are your pistons at TDC??

Finished up with buffing out the car with 3M compound, next step is to go over the entire car again with Meguiar's Swirl Remover...
