Here are cheap & nasty's pistons and rods. They actually turned out pretty good. The rods had some pretty heavy surface rust. What do they call that? Oh yeah, seasoned. lol I still remember the stories traded around about the early NASCAR teams burying blocks in wet ground to get them to rust so they'd be "seasoned" and stronger. Myth? Truth? Crap if I know.....it sounds goods, though. LOL
