CP Pistons + SCAT Rods Kit | Shelf Design | Ford 2.3L |

Hello, are the piston and rod kit always out of stock? Or are they a by-order-only thing?
Do I need the "custom" pistons if the deck and head are machined flat?
Just trying to make a game plan before I have the engine sent out to be machined.
The engine is stock, want bored 0.020 over.

The rods have been out of stock for about 8 months so the kit has been out of stock for the same time. We ordered the custom rods about 9 months ago. We're supposed to have a large batch of rods ready in August so assuming the manufacturer finishes them up on schedule, they'll be back in stock at that time. Any orders for them before that time will ship as soon as we have them.

You don't need custom pistons for the machined deck and head assuming they were only cut to make them flat, not milled to increase compression or something where they remove way more material.
