Question about pistons?
Question about pistons?
Hey guys,
I'm interested in buyin pistons. A few months ago I found these:
# 88958634
HIGH PERFORMANCE PISTON SET $779.95
Designed as a direct replacement for your stock ECOTEC piston, these parts can withstand extreme horsepower levels. The top compression ring has been lowered slightly to help the ring and land survive in a high output engine, especially those using nitrous and superchargers. These pistons are used with the stock bore diameter and the floating pins are stock diameter. This piston will yield a 9:1 compression ration with the stock head gasket.

2.2L Ecotec High Performance Piston/Ring/Pin Set
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...6383&N=700+115
It seems these are for the 2.2L with LSJ rods. I have a 2.0LSJ.
Question #1 Will this fit the stock LSJ connecting rods?
Question #2 Is there anything that I should change(other parts) if this fits?
Thanks

Well, these are the only ones I found out 9.1:0 CR. I know diamond makes pistons and I've seen 9.5:0. Don't know if you can customize. I email JBP once and they do custom pistons.
Definitely 28 psi is too much. If you're going that high, you should choose 8.0:0 CR. I didn't notice you wrote 28 psi.
I will be doing a turbo swap, but I'm looking for 350-400WHP, so it will be about 20-22 psi
