Has anyone recently bought JE pistons for a 2.7? EBS still a good source? How much am I looking at?
Thanks, Bill P. |

I used Shasta pistons, but I they are 9.7:1 (so's I can run pump gas)and were 1K with rings & pins. He may make 10.5s, but you'd have to ask. They are JE forgings thet he machines. 8.5 to 9.7 gives a good bump in torque/hp.....maybe 5%.... 9.7 to 10.5 gives less it's diminishing returns %wise as you go up the scale. If you go twin plug, you could (maybe) run pump gas.
If I knew of a place with a good price on the C's, I'd buy em'. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) I'm always on the look for em' and seldom see them at all these days. There are prolly some remans at EBS. |
