Im going 8.5:1 with 83mm pistons. Lets us know where your getting pistons hooch, maybe get them cheaper if 2sets are bought.

seeing as my pistons are almost defo gonna be in bits (TBC) then im gonna bore out to 1.9 or 2.0

You won't get to 2l without stroking it and moving the pin location further up into the ring land on the piston. You will also be required to profile the block.

I should keep an eye more on the forums, but with me being in the US, I just have my mind elsewhere. If anyone needs things like Hooch, let me know by shooting me an email at [email protected]. I will gladly assist you in anyway I can in acquiring pistons, rods, coated bearings, gaskets, seals and anything you can imagine for your engines.
