Message	were forged pistons in there or not. An engine rebuilt by Joe Schmo (no offense) to me, would be worth less than an untouched, low mileage, running engine that I hopefully wouldn't have to mess with internally. I might pay slightly more for a rebuilt engine that has never been ran that has some good parts in it (forged pistons, rods, etc.) but, only if it was a deal compared to what I would have to pay to buy the parts seperately and build it from scratch. I've seen too much bad machine work and builds to trust someone else to take the time to make sure it was done right. In short, just put good stock parts back in it. In my opinion it won't affect the price much.
