having just looked at these 1835 pistons they are real top heavy in relation to the gudgeon pin- mahle type just wondering what the effects of this is may not be a problem but in a flat 4 i think it may encourage wobbling
there does not seem to be much support from the gudgeon pin downjust some little tab about 40mm by 13mm which is the widest part i think but wear this small area and it will wobble even more btw is ther anyone who has hight time engines on the original pistons rings and bores . beginning to think looking at some of these vertical lines in the bores that an air filter might be a good thing view s please phil ------=_NextPart_000_032B_01C5CDF0.9CA3C1F0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2800.1106" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>having just looked at these 1835 pistons they are real top heavy<BR>in relation to the gudgeon pin- mahle type<BR>just wondering what the effects of this is<BR>may not be a problem<BR>but in a flat 4 i think it may encourage wobbling<BR><BR>there does not seem to be much support from the gudgeon pin downjust<BR>some little tab about 40mm by 13mm which is the widest part i think<BR>but wear this small area and it will wobble even more<BR><BR>btw is ther anyone who has hight time engines on the original pistons<BR>rings and bores .<BR>beginning to think looking at some of these vertical lines in the<BR>bores that an air filter might be a good thing<BR><BR>view s please<BR>phil</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML> ------=_NextPart_000_032B_01C5CDF0.9CA3C1F0-- -------------- next part -------------- No virus found in this outgoing message.
