we said PM boss
Oh... thought you were a vendor here?
Hmmm... looks like Ill go elsewhere.
i accept pm's guys, dont be shy. i still need a set of rods and pistons, had a set picked out from someone. the pistons i am looking for the best deal but want more than the stockers. if it matters, lb7, stock bore, stock compression(not big on lowering cr) valve reliefs. have the stock pins though
Send Trippin a PM. SoCalDiesel.
I heard that the Ross and Arials pistons had to run aound 11 thousands min piston to side wall were the Mahle is around 5 thousands, and on the cast piston that most of us run is 3.5 thousands and 4 on the back 7 and 8 bore.
True forged? What does that mean?From a PTW (piston to wall) stand point thats about average, 9-12 thou is where most of your True forged pistons are reccomended to run at, blown and turbo should run more in a gasser, dont let the extra clearance bother you too much. It will tighten up when running.
but for the mahle being so small of a clearence makes me wonder of the material.....
True forged pistons can handle more heat hence the need for more clearence...or room for Growth
