Bansh-eman Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 it depends on what kind of pistons you have. Quote
some87 Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 it depends on what kind of pistons you have. all stock. i found a Wiseco Piston Kit for $80 but dont know if they are any good Quote
travis6767 Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) is that kit just for one piston? and if you are going to buy new pistons then i would take the jugs off and measure them before buying anything, you need to find out if they need to be bored out,because they could be a little worn from running original stuff for so long, if you do need them bored go as little as possible. and weisco pistons are the best for the banshees but i think a piston kit with cometic gasket is going to run you about $160-$190 and if you need to bore it then that will cost you more Edited November 11, 2008 by travis6767 Quote
some87 Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 well the engine has very low hours on it and i dont know if thats for both pistons or just one but ill find out sooner or later. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted November 11, 2008 Report Posted November 11, 2008 take the motor apart and see if it needs to be bored or just honed. If it needs to be bored, buy the next size pistons and send them with the jugs to get bored so the tolerances can be set properly. Quote
some87 Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Posted November 11, 2008 just got them checked and they are at 63.53mm so im good with stock pistons. i learned my lesson and now im going to use engine ice :ermm: Quote

RIPPEN Posted December 3, 2008 Report Posted December 3, 2008 hay guys i checked my compresson again today and guise what??????? its at 70 psi ~.~ i did that whole engine rebuild for nothing. they were at 75 psi before and now its lower with new pistons. I HATE YOU GUYS lol jk What?? Somethins not right.. Not to offend you at all but is teh guage you are using known to be accurate and are you checking the compression correctly? IE Both plugs out,(ign off of coarse) throttle wide open, kickin till needle stops? 75psi is WAY low.. Also with you re-build did you do it all "correctly" or did ya cut some corners? RIPPEN Quote
