Kegger Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Are they a high silicon piston? If they are then they expand a lot and it'll take up the rest of the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are then they expand a lot and it'll take up the rest of the room. im not shure if they are or not but i do know they are a cast piston heat treated and have some kind of coating on them fore sealing and heat resistence they are the ebay special pistons ther cheap and say they can hold up to over 450Hp im hoping i can find some one that has ran these pistons to see if they worked half deasent or not. if u wont to see these pistons just go to ebay youll find them thers lots of them there the ycp and nippon racing pistons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegger Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 There's your problem, lol. Should'a saved your money a bought some good forged pistons. Cast pistons suck for high HP applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 ok 1) don't buy ebay motor parts, you get what you pay for 2) how many miles are on the block. there is a big chance that the extra clearance you are refering to is worn cylinder walls.

Hatch92 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 (edited) i'm gonna say it's because the block has 250+k Edit: yea the block is within specs for oversized pistons. Edited December 3, 2007 by Hatch92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastigir Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I don't know how much metal expands, but .044 mm seems like a good figure for both the block and pistons expansion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
