Here's another one, stock crank and rods. It does have pistons though, ended up making 1342HP/928TQ at 7500rpms.

This is a 4.8L rod on the left, 5.3 mid, lq9 on end. Sure hell doesn't look like a 1300HP rod. I would want to be wrapped in armor if I pushed my truck to those levels for a 1/4 pass.

They said in hot rod, they opened up the top ring on the stock pistons. To the engine guys, whats the odds of general wear effects on my pistons with 98K miles "time in service" ?

Probably favorable. Steve Brule from Westech (i think that's who it was) was quoted once saying the higher mileage truck motors tend to have weaker ring seal as cylinder and ring wear progress, which can effectively lower cylinder pressures (dynamic compression) making them more "boost" tolerant.

^^Makes sense.

I can't wait for my twin setup to get here. I've got a KYTP kit coming with twin tc76's.
