so ; if wiseco makes JEs does that make the wiseco just as good ? i'm not dropping 3600.00 for cosworths that's for sure .

 

Well, I was going to use the Endyn Rollerwave pistons which I had already bought, but decided against it and had to buy some new JE pistons instead that maintain the stock compression ratio. Talk to RMW as well, Jan stocks the brilliant CP pistons as well

Cosworth or Mahle pistons are not necessarily the best around, although they are for certain applications like the Subarus and Evos.

Cheers,

it's funny ; cosworth sells two versions for the mini .one of which is 3600 a set!!! i can't seem to find je's direct. though wisecos can be had direct . if you had to choose between the two ? the cps are probly better but i'm no racer . and with 80,000 on the clock now . a little better than stock should be fine.

 

I have a set of stocks with 11k miles on them...great shape if your interested, would just need new rings I would suggest....be the cheapest you could get & run perfectly fine if your not run twincharged or turbo...

 

i hope to be into it in a couple weeks ; it's always something this wk.s is a patio . gotta get the spread ready for a graduation party . you think the stockers can take over 200 at the wheels? i'm hoping to send the head to abacus ,that should put me over the 200 mark . it dyno'd last summer at about 180 on a dyno dynamics ., with one bad lung (unknown to me at the time) . i'll be running w/i too so those ring lands should be okay . i'll pm you then . if it's not just a seized ring . thx alot .

 

one more thing .. i'm fairly certain i'll be doing rod bearings (why not right?) so where can i source the bushings for the wrist pins? or do i need to buy new rods if those are shot?
