Well I tore my short block down and found a brand new set of speed pro .060 forged pistons, little upset but whatever. Should I just toss this pos and start over or drive the living piss out of it, everyone says .060 blocks run hot but the car hasn't had any cooling issues. I just hate to ruin a good set of aluminum heads if it let's go
 
Even 4.040 is pushing it on those thin wall 302 blocks. 4.060 is too big. Don't hit it with juice or boost.
 
O.o damn! Glad to know. My block is "supposedly" .060 over..
Maybe I'll get a 351 this winter :)
My car has been running about 190ish in this 85*-90*+ weather.
