I had a set of forged APEP pistons made from a sample I sent them plus 40thou.
Aries is the brand name APEP did the machining ect I paid $1100 for a full set
with total seal racing rings including freight Bill was the guys name I talked
to he new his stuff. Quality was A1 still going strong behind my 300hp CA18
running 15psi soon to be 18.
