Best brand and source for pistons
My L89 block is at the machine shop where it has been bored .030.
What pistons are you guys using for your restorations/rebuilds? The machinist mentioned he uses Icon pistons and he would buy them “off the shelf”. Assuming TRW pistons aren’t available any longer? This is for my 1969 corvette L89 427/435 Thanks

Best is Gibtech and Probe billets. But just get a set of Malhe or Wiseco and you will be fine.

SpeedPro is what used to be TRW. They even have the same part numbers. I used Diamond in my 427.
