I picked up a 2.4T core motor I am going to rebuild to go in one of my 914's, someday...
It will just befor around town, maybe autox.

Question is regarding pistons, it needs new ones and I am either going to find some in spec used ones or go with JEs, and keeping the T cams or regrind E. I would like to get a little more kick out of it while I am at it but I will not be running an external oil cooler so wondering if I go with E (8:1) or S (8.5:1) pistons, would the increase in compression ior E cams mpact operating temperature to the point where I would need a cooler. Any experience, insight?

Looks like custom 2.4S JE pistons and birrals are $1440, not bad all things considered, thankfully I got my core cheap.



Where do you see these? I have birals now and believed it wasn't a good idea to run the E or S pistons with them. If that's not the case I'll hone my cylinders and run the E pistons.
