Looks like I am in the engine rebuilding way at the moment. Finally got feed up with trying to figure out what was wrong with my engine/auxiliary systems so I pulled the motor this weekend.
Probably the last time out on track the motor dropped a valve guide. Found one broken secondary spring. And I still haven't pulled the driver side head! Fun fun. Ideally I would like to find quality 95mm pistons (allowed a 1.2mm over bore for the class I am preparing to run) and machine my cylinders to match. There does not seem to be a quality 95mm option on the shelf. (I know AA makes a 95mm piston & cylinder set; I am just not interested in buying it.) My question is: has anyone ordered custom 95mm JE pistons and are willing to share the part number? Alternatively is there a source for forged 94mm flat top pistons? All the forged pistons I can find are 96mm or bigger. Thanks, Miguel |

You also could have gone 94 and had the crank done a hair longer stroke
