I have a 69 firebird and damaged a couple pistons (detonation). I was presuming I should replace all of them (weight matched and new material). I don't have the time to do it myself so i was wondering what you think I should expect a shop to charge me for labor [number of hours, I can assume a rate], I am wondering if they could do it with engine still in car too. What are your thoughts?
Also, i was wondering what type of pistons I should get; standard cast, hypereutectic, or forged. It is just a nice weekend driver, ~400hp, current pistons are cast, mildly driven.
