97 xp rebuild

[diesel04]

hey guys, jsut pulled the motor out of my 97 xp, looks like it recently rebuilt, judging by the bottom of pisstons ( still shiny as ever), wondering what brand of pistons to go with, borin 10 thou over with this machine. OEM would be nice, too much $$$$ tho. WSM?? thats all i see on the net advertised, hear to stay awya from wiseco.....any input would be great. thanks

Pro-x are good pistons, I went with wiseco and they are good so far.

for a stock motor, WSM is fine IMO, pro-x and OEM are better, Wiseco is fine but overkill for stock, cast pistons do just fine. more importantly is to get the clearances right and proper break in.
