Shouldnt the piston dishes be offset forwards rather than back?
I seriously doubt it! |

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

If you have gone to the effort of buying fancy pistons you might aswell fit them properly. Id take them out

Was it not Minispeed who were also selling JE pistons designed for the A series with 18mm pins and a crown hight 7mm lower than the deck hight? On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

If you look on the minispeed website, the picture shows the IASA etched into the fattest part of the squish band and is the other way round. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:

It does look that way, im not sure if the thoughts are different on weber boxes being less structural but i would still seam weld it. The car looks really well done but those fuel lines are asking for trouble. |
