pistons.....which would you go for

[Inferno]

From what I have read, Wiseco and CP pistons are very similar... both are forged aluminium, both list almost identical "features" (accumulator grooves, double pin oilers, valve relief for high lift cams etc), both have pretty much identical specs.

 

The only difference I can find is Wiseco weigh slightly more and as you say, one person will say go for Wiseco, the other will say go for CP.

Do you need oversize pistons?

[DaveSupTT]

I will do yes. But not sure on the size until I get it rebored.

Nic I still not received your prices

If you get chance can you send me them.

 

Cheers

Im guessing it will be 96.5mm but cant be 100%

Your machinist will need the pistons before he does the rebore. If he is good he will match each piston to a numbered bore.

Yeah I been speaking to Chris Wilson (hes most likely going to be the guy to sort the rebore for me) But im just after pros and cons for CP and Wisco? I just dont know which to go for.

I would follow Chris's advice on this, I like Wiseco for their quality, but I use for a different application.
