Ok, I know it's not a roadster topic, but I trust you guys and I need some advice. I'm trying to gather all the parts for my Z motor and I cast flat-top pistons. So far the biggest I can find are 0.0

Some English people have used Triumph pistons in their L6 engines. I think the bore size is 88.9 mm? Spike Anderson would know but he's in Malaga, Spain. Rob??? Thomas -- <><><><><><><><><><><> Thoma

Your dictionary is correct, Alex. 86.75 mm would be a .030" over piston. I don't know what the cylinder wall thickness is on a 240-Z but I'd check it carefully before going to 88 mm. Check with a qua

Do a little research on the zhome.com site for the 3L builds. I've built a 3.1L L28 (F54 turbo block) for my 240Z. I used the KA24 cast pistons (89mm) from the 240SX/Trucks. It has a pretty big dish

Alex and everyone, Sorry I got my pistons backwards, I used the Z24's with a good sized dish on top. The KA24's are the ones with flat-tops (although there are two versions). For a comprehensive expl
