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 |

I set the compression ring @ .025. The second ring at .020 and I don't remember what I used for the oil rings. I think somewhere around .015. I have it written down somewhere in my notes. I'll see if I can dig up the specs tonight.
Rich is a character! Very creative. I actually used a kitchen meat scale to ball park everything. Then borrowed my dad's balance scale from his days as a chemist to dial in the tollerance to about 1/2 gram. That was time consuming! But pays you back every time you spool up the engine to 6K! |
