I have a 2.0L motor sitting around that was water siexed (rusted) ao this weekend I pulled it apart.
Needs new pistons and cylinders so I was looking at this big bore (no machining needed) kit. Anyone have experience with this particular kit? http://aapistons.com/index.php?main_page=p...;products_id=58 |

the link you sent me was for the biral cylinders. I can not recommend those since I have no test data to support any claims good or bad. Biral is a cast iron sleeve with aluminum fins cast over it. in theory it should be better heat dissipation.
the kit I have used is cheaper cast iron cylinders with cast hypereutectic pistons. AA has them made in china and does the machining here in costa mesa CA. under $300 for pistons, cylinders and rings. for heavy duty applications like AX, I recommend upgrading the rings and a flatter hone angle |
