  1. Good news from the machine shop - the 230 cid motor that I pulled from the '56 Suburban passes muster for the block, rods, crank, cam, valves, valve seats, springs and head. Unfortunately, there was enough vertical scoring on the pistons that they needed to be bored over 0.040, which means I need to buy new pistons. I did some research between our favorite vendors based on price, but then I wondered if there were any significant quality difference between them on pistons and rings. I tend to think that "Made in the USA" get's you a superior part. NOS is, of course, cast iron- new are typically aluminum alloys. Not sure where each vendor sources their parts but I'm assuming that Roberts and Bernbaum are using NOS, while Egge makes their own in the US, or used to. Here's what I found on price for pistons+rings: Summit Racing New $325 Aluminum Roberts Motor Parts NOS? $675 Cast Iron Kanter New $717 ? Andy Bernbaum Auto Parts NOS? $720 Cast Iron Vintage Power Wagons New $774 Cast Iron Egge New $932 Aluminum Small piston in photo is Summit Racing's offering, which looks different from the others.
  2. I bought what I was told was a running Chrysler 218 out of a '47 Plymouth Special Deluxe a year and a half ago. I got her down to the block, cleaned everything up, painted all pieces and parts, recently lapped the valves back in, and now I'm ready to begin reassembly. That's when I found out that my '47 Chrysler 218 is really a '57 Dodge 230 and it has been rebuilt before. For all intense and purposes the motors are the same so my gasket set will work, but the .030 oversize rings I purchased for the cast iron pistons of the 218 will not. What I really need to know is what size of oversized pistons I have. The pistons for the 230 are stock cam ground aluminum pistons (CDPD logo on them). 871354 O/S is cast on the inside of the pistons and 954809-x is stamped into the top of them. The piston diameter as measured with my dial calipers is 3.259in. Any and all information will help - thanks.
