Im unsure on prices to be honest but will find out tomorrow and report back!Yeah ideally you want aftermarket piston so you can raise the CR as well as gaining valve clearance. I just got the impression from the first page that you wanted to build an engine properly but on a budget, which is fine ive been thinking about building an 88mm lump for a while! Bear in mind pistons are about |

Well so far from the bits I've got I can build an engine with a 10.9 compression ratio, or if I get hold of an 88mm crank 13-1  The actual parts have cost me about ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

An alternative is to have Nissan pistons machined (see pic) and fitted which is what Sandy fitted into mine. 87mm though so block will need to be bored.  ________________________________________ 2.1 16v 306 Rallye. |

What pistons are they exactly? I rebore alot of nissan blocks at work and flat top RB25 (GTS) pistons look similar to 6 ones, although i havent got round to measuring either up yet! |

I have a Peter Taylor stg.1 inlet camshaft, and I would be curious what you guys think about it's specs. :"Duration 226 deg. @ 0.050" Max. Lift 0.350" Lift @ TDC - 0.065" (but a range of 0.065-0.075 is acceptable for fine tuning)" It's a regrind from an XU10J4R camshaft to stg.1 XU10J4RS spec. ________________________________________ VTSbest 60' : 2.272 best 1/8 ET : 9.375 @ 74.42mph best 1/4 ET: 14.603 @ 97.047mph Team Trackday™ |

So to fit some uprated cams and to have safe clearance at TDC what pistons are required? Im assuming some forged aftermarket ones but does anyone know who makes them?________________________________________ Peugeot 306 GTi 6BMW 320 td compact M-sport 1967 Mini Cooper 1990 Jaguar XJR 4.0 |

Have you worked out the cc of the engine you are considering then Mei?I was wondering about getting a couple of PeterT's cams ages ago, but decided i'd get more from making the chassis and brakes good. Your ZX is hardly slow as it is  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

Magic used it and got some very impressive hp figures. |

I was meaning the difference in duration, i.e you measure your cam at 0.050" which is 1.27mm, giving 226 deg.Newmans measure at 1mm. and give 222.5mm. what does your gti6 cam give at 1.0mm/0.0393"? I might be interested in sending an XU10J4R or XU7 cam, or even a J4RS cam for a stage 1 grind, the results you and Magic have got from them are quite impressive I mus say Adam the engine I considered putting toge3ther would have ended up at either still at 1998 cc on the standard crank but with 2.0 RFY mi16/s16 pistons and rods and 10.9-1 compression or using a 1.9 88mm crank for 2044cc, that would need some piston skiming or a thicker gasket, or some chamber relief work as it'd give a 13-1 compression as is  ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

yes Mr Harris, would enable you to run cams like PT81's or PT82's etc without fear of bending valves.Allanallen, thanks for the tip I'll PM him now, AdamB got a price from the machine shop a few doors down from him, initial setup cost was quite a bit but gets cheaper and cheaper the more sets are done. I "think" sandy can sort them too so I'll ask him as well. I'm going to see how much extra room is needed for the first step or two in cam upgrades, generally these don't need uprated pistons I dont think. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

I am too pondering on cam shafts at the moment, i think with the pistons i have that i will be able to have some fairly large max lift figures, the cut outs are reasonably large. But, i dont want to have to rev this thing real hard to get the power from it.Welshpug, i have the drawings of these pistons ive got, do you want a look? ill have to email them over. |
