true true.
Quick question though, is it possible for me to knock in/out the piston pin so i can put another piston on the connecting rod or do i have to take it somewhere to get them put together? (since every set i look at they all seem to come seperate)

you can pull the wrist pins out yerself.. take the c clips out of either side of the actual wrist pin itself and it'll push out then reverse process to install.

Stock pistons used press pins, not c clips or spiral locks. If you get aftermarket pistons/rods then you can put them together yourself. Most all aftermarket pistons are not made with press fit pins anymore.
