From the builders I know custom Wiseco and Diamond recommended. I priced Wiesco pistons for my 59 430 at about $135 each. The only EGGE 410 MEL piston set I have seen had no pin offset. That caused to heavy side of the piston to knock around in the cylinder. That was several years ago, may or may no...

Hello, I have been threatening to put a 430 in my 65 F-250. I mocked everything up in 66 frame a couple of years ago. Is your F-100 a Camper Special? If not and the Dana 60 is original it has the towing package. Non Camper Specials likely didn't have the helper spring pack. The transmission is my ma...

Ok, so after 3 weeks of searching, and not being able to come up with a brake master cylinder, does anyone know off hand what other master cylinders will fit? It shouldnt be that hard to swap, but it does look like length could be an issue Hello, check out 59lincolnrag post. He has lots of good tip...

I have no knowledge of there quality but I have seen many of there Ebay adds with the wrong pistons. The only one I know how to get in contact with is Ted Eaton of Eaton Balancing. He has a few technical post of his MEL builds here and at eatonbalancing.com

Check it out.

I posted it on Slick60's (61-66 Ford pickups) website last week.
