Forged pistons are stronger, if your looking to go big power, either with high compression, forced induction, or nitrous, I'd get the forged pistongs. If your simpley rebuilding the engine, I'd still get the forged, but the cast pistons would be alright for near stock performance. If you go forged make sure to pick up some nice forged H or I beam connecting rods
