Thinkin about the s50 pistons
« on: July 12, 2006, 12:51:06 PM »
Well I've been thinkin about the s50 pistons and since I have access to great machine shop ;)  I really think I might do this to help lower my compression and be able to run higher boost safer.  What is the stroke of the s50 pistons?  The same as ours?  What all is there besides the pistons and boring of the block that I would need?

I am going to install some S52 pistons in my engine. They are 86.4mm bore and will be only about 1mm too tall and can be made to fit.

does anyone have pics of s50 and s52 pistons?  Are they flat tops?

As soon as the S52 pistons show I will take some pictures and post them.
