round things that go up and down in your cylinders, usually attached to a connecting rod which works off the crankshaft.

Said rotation of the crankshaft produces power which is harnessed by the clutch and transmitted to the axles via the transmission.

13010-PDN-A00 is the STD size
13020-PDN-A00 is .25 mm oversize

There was a natural gas powered civic known as the GX. It was a fleet vehicle for honda employees. I'm pretty sure the pistons are 75mm and have a 5.5cc dome. They also use the same wrist pin as the bseries motors.

Don't mind bone he just wants you to look for this previously documented information. He's trying to teach you to fish, while I'm simply giving you a fish.

ls rods will get you to 350 hp and 8500 rpm, Which is probably more than your d series on 20psi will be pushing. I run the vitaras with scat rods to 18-20 psi and everything is holding up fine. The ls rods would hold up just as well, I actually planed on using them and bought a set, only to find out that school didnt have the rheam i needed to make the bushing. If you wanna buy them PM me! The noise is from the excessive piston to wall clearance you get from using stock bore pistons. If you find anything other than 1mm oversize, go for it. But i couldnt find them anywhere. Good luck with your build.
