i need to find out what size my pistions are already because the forged type only got up to +0.40 and since mine has already had a rebore it might not be suitable

cheers tom

Either take the head off, or invest in a boroscope to see what's stamped on the piston tops.

The amount of muck on your pistons may vary.


If father Christmas is listening I'd like one of these but can't really justify it .

You need to measure the bores - but I'm sure forged pistons are available in ALL sizes - the price is of course high! Of course - what you also need is a low static compression ratio - this can be achieved by either machining the crown of the piston - or by opening up the combustion chamber (hopefully aiding flow at the same time) or a combo of the two. Has your engine builder any experience of building Turbo A series engines ?

turbo pistions are only up to +0.40 but he says he might be able to get bigger but again more expensive,

he supplies jono and esm with all there 1360cc not sure about a engine for supercharger, jono seemed happed with the work hes dun
