Default Badger Pistons

Has anyone any experience with Badger brand Pistons? Quality or not?

Used and sold 100's without a problem. I would use a set on any rebuild on a stock engine.

Ok then, I'll do the deed on Monday and get on with assembling my 292 with its .020 overbore. Eventually going in my '56 Meteor Rideau Victoria.

Badger pistons in the late 70's were equal to TRW or sealpower in quality, I sold and fitted several to connecting rod while running a machine shop. They did make performance pistons also, I never had any complaints.
