I'm going to shoot for at least 18psi on these babies. Hell, at least they're dished for lower compression. :D

18psi 11-21-2008 09:32 PM

18psi you say? :D

Did you have any trouble putting the wrist pins? Specifically did you have to heat them?

Ummm... look at the pistons again. lol

But by the way, the correct (Mazda OEM) pins fit just right in the bushing.

:slap: but you did try to put them in and they went in no problem?

Yes, they fit just fine. They were a little resistant at first, but I put a little oil on the surface and it went right in. (That's what she said.)
And I'm guessing it's ok to reuse the OEM wrist pin, but I'm going to let the machine shop that does the build decide.

What is that, a lawnmower piston?

RotorNutFD3S 11-21-2008 11:05 PM

Close. Came out of a Yamaha Golf Car engine.

There it is.

Those conrods are like cankles on a skinny chick, built to hold a lot more than what they got on them.

Holy crap! I think the rods will saw into the cylinder walls ;)
