Can anybody decode FPP part numbers?
« on: August 31, 2013, 09:11:23 AM »
FPP 242-99 #2931

Supposedly new in box pistons. I'm guessing these were from way back when he had a shop.
Did he have his own mfg or was he re-marketing somebody else's?

Great forum thanks. Any idea who the mfg was? Since 427 I am thinking should be forged? Looks like lower compression height than stock. What would the best use be?

I guess the deep valve reliefs must be around 5 cc. A good street piston for a Galaxie?
