What brand pistons are the best to use for 5.7 Magnum? What cam? The torque converter will be replaced, any suggestions? Magnum is street driven, however I tend to have a heavy foot. Thanks

How quickly do you want the vehicle back up? Do you intend to do fun modifications while it's out? Are you doing the work yourself?
