call from wallace perf....

Still waiting for 1 piston..... as Omega will NOT sell 1 piston and 4 ring sets.... they will only see 4 complete pistons with rings!!!

anyone know anywhere at all that would have a ring set for Omega 3520 88mm pistons???

I wondered whether the block that was in now was the bored out one cos' didn't one of them die (or is that why you're asking about buying one piston )

1 block had slight scoring, and 1 slightly damaged piston...

rebored spare block to 88mm, and moving internals over

it means there is a cut out to allow the valve to open without hitting the piston top, if you get deeper pockets you can run wild cams with bigger valve lift as the valves wont hit the pistons

no not rev highter, have a bigger valve lift so the valves are open for a longer duration letting in more air and fuel, but the bigger the lift the higher up the rev range the power will be
