Hey Guys,
what are the I.D. measurments of stock cylinders? I am getting ready to rebuild my 2.0 and the cylinders that are on it measure right under 96mm I.D.. Is this stock cylinders? The pistons in the engine are dished so I'm almost sure they are stock, but there are no markings on top like type 1 pistons. My thinking is that for 94mm stock pistons the cylinder would be a little larger right? I want to go to 96mm P/C for addred performance. What does it cost to have the stock cylinders bored for 96mm pistons? and who does this? Randy |

I Have calipers and I pulled the cylinder out far enough to slip my caliper behind the cylinder and measure the piston and sure enough these must be 96mm.
They are dished pistons but don't look like bus pistons with the small deep dish, they look just like the stock 914 2.0 pistons and who ever put these in used the head rings (Gaskets). Does someone sell like copper head gaskets to use in place of the metal ones. that may help me to make sure I have a good seal on the heads when I reassemble this engine. I Guess I will reuse the dished pistons being they are 96mm. Does someone know who I can send the cylinders off to to be cleaned and honed? Who sells 96mm ring set for an affordable price? Wonder if I should go total seal. The seller also told me the engine has an upgraded cam, but I don't know for sure. I'm still not sure about the play I feel through the flywheel when I turn it by hand and the float back to front. I hate to have to split this case if I can get away with not doing it. Randy |
