    Just looking at that phone number in the contact us section would have me saying NOPE. I guarantee that call would not be completed as dialed.

    Cheap engine parts lead to expensive problems.

    As others have said, that vendor looks sketchy and nobody knows them. If it were my own money, I'd look elsewhere.

    Have you tried searching or posting in the performance subforum to see what other people suggest? May want to start there.

    Thanks everyone for the advise. I'll be looking else where for my forged internals.

    Here’s the rods I have. They are ordered thru LCE but made by Pauter
    https://www.lceperformance.com/2TR-2-7L-Pro-Chromoly-Crossbeam-Rod-Set-p/1013013.htm

    They offer forged pistons as well at LCE but they are special order depending on what size you need.
    As far as I understand, these are manufactured by CP Carillo. I don’t have these yet, but that’s what I’ve gathered so far in my research, and that’s the route I’ll go eventually
