Who are you having make the rods and pistons?
We have a few manufacturers who are/are going to be making both of these items for us. Right now Wiseco is making our pistons and Pauter will be making the rods. We are exploring other companies as well which should hopefully drive the price down a little.
Happy to see the Speed6 guys putting a forged option together. We are already seeing the pistons have a tendency to crack so these kind of options are necessary. I am also very interested in the porting work and research you are doing on the head.
We are currently porting and flow benching all of what we do so that we have factual data to back it up. There is a lot of room for improvement on this head and we are very excited to see some serious numbers come out of it.
Because I would like to know what type of material is being used on the pistons. It's not a "I want to reveal this to the entire planet so they can't make money" as most piston manufacturers will not sell a custom piston or rod to anyone else but the company who had it developed.
It's the simple fact that pistons, while machined in somewhat of the same ways, are not all created equal.
We will be making both a 2618 and 4032 piston for those people who are looking for a more mild DD street setup and also for those looking to make big power.
Well if we go with a big displacement build or break ours I'd be interested in

We are already hard at work on a 2.3/2.4L and are developing it at the same time as our 2.0L because we think it will be a very popular option for people. There's no reason not to go bigger really and it will help make some more usable power under the curve.
