J&E forged pistons for 263

[Panningbros]

I have been following the 263 rebuild series on You Tube Hagerty Redline Rebuild. They had J&E pistons made for this motor. A more modern forged higher compression 3-ring style piston. I would like to use them in my rebuild. I have emailed J&E a couple of times and no response. Has anybody pursed these?

I would call them. It could be that they are proprietary to the builder. This would require some sort of a release by the builder.

I used Arias for my "hop up".

Davin does not know from whence he speaks, sometimes.

Does Aries make them custom or did you order them out of their catalog?

May be this older Posting from 2014 is interesting?.. there where Egge and autotec pistons also an Option.
They go more in the flattop direction ,so that you can milling your head much more..

Pistons, pistons, pistons!!!!

So, the question is, what differences will it make when we replace pistons to go not stock? When I say not stock, I mean anything across the spectrum. For instance, my stock 1950 248 has domed pistons. What if I went with flat top pistons? Cast vs. Forged??? What is the ideal (or closest to it)...
