Who's flycut stock pistons for 2.02 intake valves?

I'd like to also take this time to say that HOUSTON PERFORMANCE sold me this combo. I called and told them I have a stock fox body, and will be doing forced induction. I wanted heads/cam/intake that I could bolt right on and hit around 300rwhp.

I get all this stuff finally (took nearly 5 weeks to get all the stuff as they seem to forget to check on things), and then I find out I cant use the dang parts on my stock shortblock without piston modification.

I was a bit annoyed....they made no mention of this over the phone when they were taking my money. *sigh*. Oh well, it'll rock when it all works, just wish they'd told me I wont be able to bolt this stuff on and go.

When I called to confront them about it, the guy on the phone replied "oh..uhm...er...yeah, you're gonna wanna check the clearance, but it *should* work." I asked specifically if people have run my cam and heads on stock pistons with no modifications and he replied "yes, several have I beleive. Just double check it".

Nice action. I wont be using them again sadly...
