I had a set of standard 4x4 pistons in my old cossie that had cuts outs machined with no problems just need to make sure having standard ones are worth havin with bd14s!!!

the strut brace

was going to get 5 thou taken off the top and them pocketed.

that should lower the comp when combined with the 1.42mm headgasket and the pockets should let the bd14 do its thing,

thats right aint it???

What comp ratio would you end up with by machining 5 thou off and having them pocketed ....???
