| Mod for a purpose. You're wasting money in the wrong areas and cutting corners in other areas. It also sounds like you're trying to be different for the sake of being different. The stock pistons are long known to be a weak point in the engine, but you're not going to put anything stronger in. What you're going to be left with is an engine that was very expensive to put together but doesn't have anything to show for it. You should put the most time/money/effort in mods which deliver the biggest gains and work your way down from there, ending with mods which deliver minor gains. When you see a professional race team doing some exotic mod in order to extract that last bit of power, they're doing it because they've already exhausted the usual bag of tricks and can't get easy power anywhere else. Starting out with a knife edged crank, specialty coatings and propane injection when you haven't even changed the stock pistons, cams, or increased displacement just doesn't make any sense to me. What you are doing is wasting money trying to re-invent the wheel. Custom work is expensive, and isn't guaranteed to deliver better performance. I don't mean to shoot down your plans but you'll eventually see what I mean.
