i have to correct myself on my last statement ... you need to dish the reliefs on all ls pistons as the intake side will not clear the intake valves... my suggestion is to use the b16 pistons so u dont have to cut the reliefs... thats why i said no before....i forgot i was running jdm p30 b16a pistons with my latest ls/vtec... if yoou need more info on the subject i may put a full write up on here tomorrow cuz i had another person showin interest in assembling one ..
