Just got a 6.0 lq4 block and getting it cleaned up what pistons do you guys recommend putting on. Will at least be spraying a 200 shot. Not looking to bore just want some better pistons to hold spray or should I not even bother changing them.
LQ4 are dished, so for a stock piston, those are the one's you'd want to go with for spray/boost.
Lol all depends on how attached to your motor you are. Spray as much as you can for numbers, but risk melting pistons. I'd be a little more conservative and keep the motor around for a little bit.
Well in that case I'd run a forged dished piston if you want it to last. But those are $600+ a set.
If youre planning on spraying the fuck out of it, and want longevity/to preserve your block in the case of destroying a stock piston, youre going to want to upgrade pistons, at that point, may as well upgrade rods. Id be a bit more conservative on the spray and run it a while then do a full build. or keep it out of the truck until I did a full/forged build. :imo:
U want flat pistons not dished for spray. Also save yourself some money an buy this
