If I go for pre 2001 pistons

[carl B]

If in the search of big BHP I would revert to the older Forged pistons opposed to my later cast ones what would I expect to pay??

I also understand i will need an early fuel pump??

Also head gaskets etc??

Am considering a NX nos kit

Factory forged pistons are pre-2000, not pre-2001. And you'd likely be better off, if you're going to go to the trouble of tearing the engine down, to use a better aftermarket piece. Most good aftermarket pistons are around $1k a set including rings.
