Ethan#4 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Posted August 15, 2011 Hi all Recently i pulled down a 4k engine that had dished pistons and what looks like a bigport head. My question is can i buy new dished pistons? thanks for any help. Quote
altezzaclub Posted August 15, 2011 Report Posted August 15, 2011 Photos would help educate us- What size dish? 3cc 5cc 22cc..?? in the end I'm sure you will spend time at your local parts supplier with the piston in your hand. Quote
Taz_Rx Posted August 15, 2011 Report Posted August 15, 2011 Could be a ported 4ku! Lugs under 1 & 4 plug holes? Quote
Ethan#4 Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Posted August 15, 2011 Yeah thats the one, can i put the head onto a 3k block without the dished pistons or would there be a problem? Quote
SLO-030 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Posted August 16, 2011 You would end up with pretty high compression putting a 4K-U head on a 3K. Alternativly, you could put the 4K-U pistons into the 3K, use the 3K head and you'd have yourself a low comp motor for boost. Quote
Ethan#4 Posted August 16, 2011 Author Report Posted August 16, 2011 High compression is what i need as it is going to become a speedway race engine with tighe 493C cam. Quote
