i've tried there m8, i should have said sowi i after .5mm oversize n 7.2:1 comp ratio mahle pistons

 

They should still do them, or be able to get them.

 

ok cheers, jus didnt think they did lookin at catalogue infront of me

I am pretty sure there is NO SUCH THING asa low comp mahle piston. They are just machined down std ones. If u know different, or can confirm, let me know

 

ok m8 thats wot i needed 2 know, whether i needed standard but oversize n then hav them machined

 

7.2 is a bit low - u would need to take a lot off and weaken the crown. 7.5 is good enough for well over 2 bar of boost.

 

nice 1 m8 i jus workin out wot i actually need 2 buy at the min, then gonna start buyin it up,

cheers

 

u want a set like in my sig

 

 

yea m8 i do

 

 

i presume they are forged m8??

 

yes. Cosworth Racing. U machine them down to CR u want. The crowns are 11mm thick!

 

sweet cheers m8 do burtonpower sell them or is it cosworth u got them from

cheers

 

Hard to get hold of now though

 

Are they? Really?

You can only get em from burton i think.

 

When I was after a couple of sets we rang Burton, didn't have any left. Rang GGR where I got mine from before, and spoke to the same guy I dealt with last time and he only had one type of one set left, I think they were 7.5:1 and +0.5mm.... No good to either of us......

So I rang Cosworth, and they weren't sure that they ever made any pistons for a CVH

GGR said they could get some made but would be in a minimum batch of 24. We couldn't be bothered to wait, and went to Ross and get exactly what we wanted rather than skimming a piston down.

 

tony were u go?

 

is the ross a central gudgeon pin?

 

Huh?




Rick - Ross will make what you tell them

 

do u hav ne contact details for ross m8?

 

call apt mate - as in tony's sig

 

amber performance in front of fast ford sell mahle low comp pistons

 

APT are Ross Racing dealers. You can have a look on Ross' site for info on them but they prefer you to order through a UK dealer.

 

cheers 4 that m8

 

do mahle pistons have an m stamped on them at the top?

 

Not that im aware of, if you look at the underside there is usually Mahle stamped up in there somehwhere.

 

10 points to Safechav


One of the pistons I have here has "MAHLE" and some numbers and letters stamped on the inside of the piston.



Now for an extra 5 bonus points..... Who can tell who produced the world's stickiest bogie?

LEE-RS

You got ur fans?

 

yes mate got them fitted them all working good cant believe how powerfull they are compared to my old ones

 

That just sounds gay

 

yeah i know but it made me laugh

 

Cool, how many u go for? 4 of em? They shift some serius air don't they!

 

I don't see anyone else laughing.........

 

yeah i got 4 of them not used the car yet so dont know what there like in trafic yet might get a new water pump aswell as the water dont seem to be circlating like it should ive flused all the water system but still the same i was looking at a cvh water pump the other day this might sound stupid but they dont look very well designed and look like they could be improved with a bit of porting where the sharp turns are and the casting marks to get it to flow abit better than standard worth a try tho a
