looking for lowering compression pistons

I can't fathom why the heck you'd get rid of the SR20 in that car for the heavier, weaker internal qr25.............

but yea, any internals you get are going to be custom. almost anything is custom on this engine. And repairs/parts are not cheap!

hey thanks for the reply...the reason for the swap is cause ithe guy who had the car before cracked the block..from oil starvation so really i have the shell..i had the qr 25 de from another car that i no longer have...so i though it would be a good idea to try the swap...no one around here(ottawa) has done it yet.

i know it's not easy but that's half the fun-- the piston are for the turbo kit i want to install. i have the engin all apart so i got the seal and bearings but all i need was the pistons and rods, i talked to people at je they said they could make them . it's getting them up here cross the border that might take a little while.i'm not sure how long i want to wait,to get this on the road. i found a guy in qubec city that did it and he said it took him 5 days for the install, but that wasen't at a shop,i have a shop that i can put it,so i don't think it will be to hard(i hope)
