sorry another zvh conversioin question for you all

heard you can use calibra turbo pistons ? any one done this, is this recomended or is there a better option ?
whats involved if i use them ?

can i live with the shame of having vauxhall parts in my ford ?????

 

get them mate i have just got a zvh s1 with these pistons engine not run in yet and fook me it pulls

 

Alot of people use them m8 usually for 2.1 zvh, both my m8s have them in there 2.1 zvhs, a wouldnt worry about having vauxhall pistons in your ford as they are not manufactured by vauxhall they are mahle pistons. I would snap them up if you could thou

 

im now the owner of a calibra turbo bottom end for £100 covered about 100K but the pistons look in good nick and the car was well looked after when it was running.

 

Calibra turbo pistons for Zetec Turbo, C20XE pistons (redtop NA) for ZVH.

With the turbo pistons in a ZVH, your compression will be very low - compromising your off boost performance.

I have a set of XE forged Mahles (be careful at some point they used cast pistons instead of the forged ones) - suitable for ZVH. They require machining work to get oil to the pin, and the Zetec rod little end need boring out to press fit with the pins.
