m20b28 what pistons

[gromgsxr]

Does anyone know which pistons from a face lift car will fit without the skirts being shaven either mahle or ks?

[aceifty]

the face lift block shoulsd have a number reading 25 6 k1

[gromgsxr]

Yeah I have a facelift block 25 6 k1 as you say. but I was under the osumption there was 2 different brands of pistons used either mahle or ks and one of the brand requires the pistons to have the bottom shaved to clear the crank counter weights.

im using the pistons out of a 25 6 k1 block for my M20B28 build and if im right the 25 6 k1 block pistons a mahle and the ks pistons need the skirts shaven.

hope that helps

Thought that may be the case if got the ks pistons with a bit of skirt on them, I think the mahle are pretty flat about the base of the piston.

Stick with the mahleones if you don't want to shave the skirts

Need to find a set in that case

[aceifty]

Didn't you say you have a block with 25 6 k1 on it, if so the pistons from that block will do. If you still need some i might have a set just need to find them.

[gromgsxr]

Iv got the ks pistons so would need the skirt skimmed if you do have a spare use able set of mahle pistons with the gudgeon pins about let me know

[aceifty]

You can use the pins that you have got or the ones that came of the 320 block

Ill see if i can hunt them down over the weekend. Ill let you know
