pistons for stage 5's

New to hemi stuff. I've purchased a TFX big bore billet block, bryant 4.14 crank and AJ stage 5 fuel heads. The bore is 4.375 and I'm looking for pistons. Is there anything differrent about the 5's compared with the AJ 2's & 3's? What about pistons for Brad fuel heads, are they interchangeable? Looking for info on the rockers as well. So far all I hear is get the BAE stage 5's.

This is for a 6.30 alcohol altered. thanks

 

Pistons

Fuel heads and Fat heads do not interchange parts Nothing at all. Good Luck Don

 

James.....we run a similar combo to yours, just a little longer stroke. i am pretty sure that the piston we use will work with most fuel heads, you just change the rod length for your combo. Brad usually has them on the shelf. i would call and talk to them, and tell them what you are trying to do. you should need a 1.428 compression height piston. the part # i have is for Arias pistons :AA4375FC. hope this helps a little

 

Thanks 378

I know I need to get some more info so I can ask better questions. This motor just came out of a big show T/F car. They threw in 1 run fuel rods & nitro pistons also. I'd like to get alky pistons that would work with the rods and pins. We will be going NFC in a year or 2 but want to run the car while we collect all the extra stuff needed for that.

 

not saying I know everything, but the AJ 5 heads may be too much for a nostalgia deal. I work with both big show and nostalgia and use AJ IIs for the small pump, small blower, points mag deal

 

not saying i know everything but doesn't that bore and stroke combo equal over 500 cu. in....not a big show fuel set up . more like a aafc, pro mod combo.

 

displacement

should be 498 ci

 

First order of business would be alky set up with 1471 hi helix and MSD44, run that for fun while looking towards N/FC down the road. Might never get to the N/FC deal but its a possiblity. 5's may be too big considering the blower and mag limits but I'm pretty sure there are a couple in service.
