72sonett3 | Posted - 08 Nov 2017 : 21:15:29 You cannot use 1500 pistons with a 1700 crank as they will stick about 2 mm out of the block at TDC. You need pistons with lower compression height.

TTruckie | Posted - 08 Nov 2017 : 18:31:12 Con rods are the same. It’s just a longer stroke on the crank so the Conroe move further laterally and will hit the long skirt on 1500 pistons |
RhysN | Posted - 04 Nov 2017 : 22:42:54 either my one with "307@", or the cyclekarts one with gmail.com, Melle is correct, I was trying to stop the spammers. |

Dynorog | Posted - 04 Nov 2017 : 09:51:52 Hi Rhys. There something wrong with that Email address. My mail system doesn't recognise it. Should I use the RhysN one? Cheers

Dynorog | Posted - 03 Nov 2017 : 16:09:57 Alex Thanks but not at that price. Thanks Rhys, I’ll be in touch later. Andy what sort are the Conrods? Melle- patience is not one of my virtues but I will try. Cheers

andydeans3 | Posted - 03 Nov 2017 : 09:23:41 I just got a set of 4, 0.49mm oversize pistons with conrods, for £10, on fleabay. They've just arrived, at first look, they look fine.
Just in case for the future.....

RhysN | Posted - 03 Nov 2017 : 08:54:26 No progress on the car Melle. |
melle | Posted - 02 Nov 2017 : 22:45:10 Note that both Skandix and Motomobil want your old one in return or you pay a fair bit extra. Being patient until you find a used one and having it reground locally may be cheaper.
Rhys, what happened to the 96 you bought?!

RhysN | Posted - 02 Nov 2017 : 16:26:35 I have a 1700 crank here that I got off Melle for the car I haven't got :( drop me an email Rog. cyclekartsnz@gmale. |
Betsy67 | Posted - 02 Nov 2017 : 09:46:24 Sorry to off topic. Are there other piston options for a 1500 reborn ? |
TTruckie | Posted - 01 Nov 2017 : 20:44:21 if you go for a 1700 crank you will need new low waist pistons easiest way is Pinto 91mm high compression pistons. easy to get from places like Burton and cheaper than Colgne V6 pistons |
Betsy67 | Posted - 01 Nov 2017 : 12:31:36 Ouch !! Even oversized pistons are an expensive upgrade |
