I plan to buy new 94mm dished pistons for my bus project. AA has the set for $250.
They also have just the pistons for $140. Should I consider having the 1.8 cylinders done to accept the 2.0 pistons? Not sure about the cost yet. The shop I planned to go to has been closed for the Holidays. So his charges might answer my question. But what does the group think? Especially the Bus people. They have recommended going with the 2 liter vs the 2056. So here I am with more questions... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Would the stock, honed 1.8 cylinders (unknown mileage) be better than new from AA? |

Yes. If the O.E. German jugs are in good condition and you have a competent shop to bore and hone.
Since you already have bus heads, whatever pistons you use (94mm or 96mm) will have to have the ~ 15cc dish that the bus pistons have to keep your compression ratio from being stratospheric. |
