what pistons were you using>?

i ran into a similar issue with a friend of mines car. With topline pistons i tqed to spec all the rod caps an the motor just wouldnt turn over without three people jumping on a breaker bar. Come to find out the wrist pins were machined wrong from topline. that sucked
