Been plugging away on my car recently and I am now charged up to start on my engine. The budget is starting to squeak! So I am considering looking for forged .30 over 340 pistons. Then for connecting rods, my 1st machine shop didn't want to work with my stock rods, wouldn't even look at them. Just said buy new. Well I have a problem with the notion of throwing Chinese rods in my 340. Before this Chinese stuff arrived we reconditioned and improved on our original rods all the time. So I went to another reputable shop. They had no problem with the idea of doing my rods. I'm sure I will have $250-300 in them by the time I get ARP bolts. So looking for thoughts and opinions. If you have lightly used +.30 forged 340 Pistons, I am looking. Thanks
