You will get mixed answers. Half will say Wiseco and the others will say JE. I have heard nothing but good things from Wiseco owners so that is what I decided to use for mine.

if you going 426 you should re sleeve it. The stock sleeve is to thin when you bore to 426 and can crack or other problems

you dont need to resleeve it. its kinda a wasted to have the cylinder bored to put a bigger sleeve in just to run a 426. just run it in stock sleeve

it is not a waste the stock sleeve is to thin with a 426 bore and is unreliable

As far as pistons go, get the cheaper of the two because you won't see a power difference worth going out of your way for.
