i have found the following companys that manufacture type 4 cylinder and piston sets. are there any more that i am missing and which do you perfer yourself. EMW, Mahle, and Econo. these are priced from $300 - $500. ive also been researching nickies but they are over $2000. are they worth it. what are the real world advantages in a daily driven street car. the way i see it i can rebuild my engine 4 times for the price of 1 set of nickies. thanks for the help.

Type 4 Store
My deluxe 96mm arrangement is the best on the market for cast iron cylinders. Read their description thoroughly. The KB Hypereuctectic pistons are excellent and to date we still have not maxxed them out CR wise, or HP wise. Do some searches here on the subject and you'll see there is more to think about than just cost. Oil consumption, ease of assembly and overall life are all seriously impacted by the choice made for pistons and cylinders. |
