Eric, those are the ones I have looked at but the pistons (743 grams) and pins (158 grams) are very heavy and I have been hearing that the sizes very a lot.

I'm not saying I won't run them but I would like to get a set that are lighter. I could have work done to lighten them up and purchase lighter pins but I would rather find a better set for around $600-$700. Maybe that's not possible...I don't know.

Thanks, Kurt
