L92 rods and pistons comparable to: ???
I have a complete rotating assembly off a L92 that I plan to use for a cheap
build. My main concern is the pistons.
I plan to use a 6.0 block, but don't want to go all the way to the 4.070 bore needed
for the l92 pistons.
So, can I use LQ4 or LQ9 pistons on the L92 rods?
I guess I could always go with forged pistons but was planning to do this as a cheap build for my brother. (He has a tired 6.0 and is not looking for performance)
No flames please. He is on a limited budget for parts, but has the hookup for all the machine work and assembly from a friend at a machine/engine shop.
He and I will be doing the engine swap ourselves.

My buddy took my 6.0 and went to the 4.070 bore. It's the only way to get a set of stock pistons and put em in a machined engine. If you have checked your bore diameter you could get away with some LQ9s, but I wouldn't. I mic'd mine and they were so egged on the sides that i needed a .003 hone minimum and that shot the idea.
I vote for 4.070
