    Before I spend more money I don't have are pistons for Fatheads (Brad 3) the same as pistons for Brad 5's?

    In other words if I got a set of Three's can I use Five pistons?
    Thanks

    The difference between BAE 3's and 5's is the combustion chamber size. The combustion chamber in the 3 heads are significantly larger which means the piston domes are also significantly larger (CC volume). There is no way the pistons will work.
