Anyone ever notch their own pistons?

use the heads you're going to run

it's seriously a beat-down of a job to do it right

I'd pull the motor and put new pistons in it! LOL

Word. The money you'll spend is well worth the headache. Screw trying the machining from inside the engine compartment on anything.

Motor is already out. Just don't want to buy pistons and rebuild bottom end if I don't have to. Just want to get this thing back together for as cheap as possible so I can have my car back and start my long term 351w build! I'll be right at the limit of this block anyway, so no point in sinking more money into it than I have to!
