Turn it upside-down and check the part numbers silly! :jest:

They will be viewable even when assembled.

I figured out the pistons TRWs should have a L in the part number for forged pistons and a H in the part number = Hypereutecic
Anyway to tell on the hardware?

Well stock hardware is stock and ARP stuff looks baller, nuff said. All ARP stuff has "ARP" stamped on the head.

Whack it with a 250 shot. If the pistons fail, they are cast. :)
