Just an idea
 

Just a though for cheap b-series pistons. I was looking on ebay and found 7mgte pistons. There 83mm bore, wrist pin is 21.996mm, comp is 8:5:1 in the 7mgte. So from the looks of it you would just need to over bore to 83mm and line hone the wrist pin a bit. Not 100% sure it will work but if it does could be a cheap way to go.

what's the piston height?

Re: Just a idea
 

also, in regards to the title.. an always comes before any word that begins with the letter i. "Just an idea"

edit: an comes before any word starting with a vowel.

just wanted to clarify that :)

Lol hey having the flu doesn't let you think right.

Not sure on the hight, let me keep looking.

Edit fix :8

Re: Just an idea
 

Ebay says "Compression height = 33.0 mm"

Not sure if thats what you need.

Re: Just an idea
 

I don't think the engine would run very good it the pistons were 3 mm above the block :l

Re: Just an idea
 

Yah, Hitchhikkr says the compression height is too tall. Also, they aren't a strong piston and they aren't forged so not worth the hassle.


My $0.02 on the subject is boring out the small end of the rod a whole mm doesn't make me feel too great about the idea.

this feels like a complex thread

Re: Just an idea
 

seems pretty simple to me ??? ??? ???

Only people I have ever seen do 83mm stock sleeve builds were JG and they were all motor builds. Plenty of companies who sell cheap forged b series pistons one not used much for some odd reason is Probe Industries.
