FULL_METAL_JACKT_II Posted May 27, 2005 Report Posted May 27, 2005 Why Does My Machine Use Blaster Pistons??? I got a Pasion Race port, Hotrod crank Stock length rods. 68.25 mm Bore. WTF? any oppinions welcome Quote
boonman Posted May 27, 2005 Report Posted May 27, 2005 You either have a stroker crank, a Long Rod crank, or someone messed up. Does it run? Blaster wrist pin holes are approximately 5mm higher in the piston. Quote
SANDSTAR Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 Do you have a spacer underneath your jugs? Quote
JARE77 Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 I have seen many like that they are usually considered a 370 long rod. But actually the rods are not longer the pistons are just shorter. I think they do require a spacer like doubled up gaskets or something. Quote
twinzr900 Posted May 28, 2005 Report Posted May 28, 2005 wonder if you have a stroker crank with the longer rods? is it considered a long rod or a stroker motor or both? lol Quote

But actually the rods are not longer the pistons are just shorter. I think they do require a spacer like doubled up gaskets or something. 374681[/snapback] I have a 370 Long rod motor. No spacer. The rods are 5MM longer than stock and the blaster pistons have the wrist pin openings 5mm higherr than a banshee piston. same stroke length. Edited May 28, 2005 by CombatTalon2 Quote
LTDANIEL Posted May 30, 2005 Report Posted May 30, 2005 if you dont have a stroker plate,you probably have the head bored out for the pistons dont hit the head. Quote
rebelbanshee2 Posted May 30, 2005 Report Posted May 30, 2005 a standard rod length with blaster pistons makes no sense...it wouldnt even run. the wrist pin location is 5mm higher on a blaster piston..so your piston crown would be 5mm lower that it should be. Either you have a long rod or you dont have blaster pistons or it doesnt run..does it run? Quote
FULL_METAL_JACKT_II Posted May 31, 2005 Author Report Posted May 31, 2005 Do you have a spacer underneath your jugs? 374673[/snapback] NOPE I have a 370 Long rod motor. No spacer. The rods are 5MM longer than stock and the blaster pistons have the wrist pin openings 5mm higherr than a banshee piston. same stroke length. 374687[/snapback] Could B if you dont have a stroker plate,you probably have the head bored out for the pistons dont hit the head. 375253[/snapback] I have the cool head with 18cc BigBore Domes nothing shaved there a standard rod length with blaster pistons makes no sense...it wouldnt even run. the wrist pin location is 5mm higher on a blaster piston..so your piston crown would be 5mm lower that it should be. Either you have a long rod or you dont have blaster pistons or it doesnt run..does it run? 375269[/snapback] It Runs FAST AS SHIT!! I still dont know I think Jim at Pasion would know. QueQueg Quote
