have anyone tried using the Trickflow Twisted Wedge Cylinder heads with the Matching 10:1 compression pistons made by trickflow for the 306?

No, but those pistons are pretty expensive as I recall...like $600 right?

You may want to surf over to Probe's site www.probeindustries.com and take a look at their SRS Pistons (Sportsman Race Series). A good quality piston at an affordable price.

In Californy, R&R = Remove and Replace (new part)
R&I = Remove and Reinstall (same part)
You R&R a part if you're replacing it , you R&I it if you're taking it off just to get it out of the way.

I dunno why I said REinstall... maybe I just couldnt think of REPLACE... duh... most people dont itemize reinstallations of things that are in the way... but in anycase.. I think you get the idea
