Here's a question and I will give the win to anybody within 10 grams either side of actual. One TRW forged 12.5 : 1 piston with rings for a 383 .060 over, on a stock B rod with a floating pin, with the rod bearing (2 halves) in place. How much in grams does it weigh? I know the answer. By the way 1000 grams is 2.2 lbs.

Lol all i know is TRW is the most awful heaviest forged piston out there, you gotta let me guess a few times i haven't dealt with a piston over 540 grams in a long time, most pistons i deal with are 480 to 540
