Canadian Dave Super Power AssClown Apr 28, 1999 1,202 0 Oct 5, 2003 #3 I'd certainly be looking at the Wiseco over the Pro-X piston. Why you ask. . . . Pro-X sells surplus original manufacture pistons that they measure for size and rebox. The stock KDX220 piston has known problems, the Pro-X will to. David
