Unless you got a 1995 then don't use your pistons.
For the 6bolt block use...


1g big rods (90-91 I think)
2g pistons (95 only)

Should be a good setup for you internally on the bottom end.
Which head will be up to you. I was told to use my 1g head that I'm buying with the 1g block I got. So I went with a 1g head. I was going to use a 2g head because I was trying to save money but me basically being told it would save all of like 100 bucks for me I just went 1g ported.

What type of performance are you wanting out of the car?
 
why only use 95 pistions? whats wrong with 96 pistons? i know 2nd gen pistons raise compression to about 9-1 so what do 96 pistons do then?

95 pistons are the strongest pistons you can get from a 2nd gen other than buying forged pistons.
