patra_is_here Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 ohhh. which VW uses 92mm pistons. and why adapt VW pistons when you could just use 92mm pistons that were made for the g54b? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack_Morris Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Volkswagen Pistons Ooooooooh OK, I don't see why they wouldnt work as long as the wrist pins fit and the pistons fit in the bores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patra_is_here Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) what about the distance from wrist pin center to piston crown?? are they really the same on the VW and g54b?? Edited April 21, 2009 by patra_is_here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonio Posted April 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Ooooooooh OK, I don't see why they wouldnt work as long as the wrist pins fit and the pistons fit in the bores I heard only rumors are not true if the adapter if you help me to verify I am grateful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
site Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 guess it would not be a straight fit if you would need an adapter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonio Posted April 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 could be on to something here I cannot say to you exactly in my country today of a case that they did it but because of it I am here to have if someone helps me if it is true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patra_is_here Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 well the only vw that would use cheap forged 92mm pistons are the air cooled VW motors. http://images.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/pix/medium/281355.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Are they actually forged? And what's the compression ratio? Aren't N/A motors a MUCH higher ration than a turbo motor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patra_is_here Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 well pretty much any piston size and compression is made for the VW air cooled motors, so, if a dished piston was needed its available. but we still don't know if the wrist pin to piston crown length is correct.

Dcrasta Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 To save 200 bucks I wouldn't risk a 2000$ motor. [and not counting time, effort, etc] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patra_is_here Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 i with u Dcrasta. to be honest, if you're building an engine that's going to NEED forged pistons and $200 is a concern of yours, you really shouldn't be building high performance motors.

Zack_Morris Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Depending on who makes the forged pistons, it would be worth a shot if the distances are correct, ie: wrist pin to crown, rings, skirt, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
