If it were me I would go with the forged because the JE Pistons dont have enough of a side skirt to keep you from hearing a knocking noise. But that is just my opinion.

if these packages r no good please let me know and let me kno on what set i should go with and where i can get a stock crank set up for a storker package
Can't really go wrong with either package, from memory the Wiseco's give a little higher static comp ratio, in the past Eagle Rods were cheap Chinese junk but they've lifted their game and are usable and a cheap alternative to prepping stock Rods.

And one based on how many correctly built 7M's with JE pistons you've done would that be?

I believe the Weisco's have a smaller side skirt at least compared with stock, I believe that would keep piston slap down.

My general rule is to never buy anything that's important from Ebay, regardless of price. Unless you know the seller (IE, Titan Motorsports or similar), you really have no effective recourse if something goes wrong. I know it's a little ridiculous, but it occasionally happens that what comes in the box isn't what's supposed to come in the box. Just make sure you're covered and getting the right stuff.

Go with the Wiseco package. Never been a fan of JE's, many I've seen have had issues with hot spots.
