6 bolt piston question

Heres the deal. I'm rebuilding my engine as most of you know. I'm probably going to use the MachV kit and get the block bored out .20 over.

My problem is that since my car was modded when I bought it I don't know if my cylinders are still the stock bore. My boss at work said usually they stamp the overbore on the head of the piston but that some newer pistons don't have it. My pistons have 6222T cast into the head. Is this the stock pistons? 2g pistons? He replaced the 4th piston and rod since the guy threw the rod bearing and fucked the rod up. the 4th pistons looks the same as the other except being newer looking.

Does anyone have pics of the stock pistons?

Re: 6 bolt piston question

That number sounds awefully familiar. If he jsut replced it because of a rod bearing, I doubt they went through an overbore with all of the machine work and clean up required. But you can simply measure the bore if you can get your hands on the right tools. Stock bore should be 85mm, 3.346". But with all the overbores and strokers I've done I always get it mixed up

if you are looking for a good place for parts go to slowboy racing, i got almost all my parts from there and the ship out fast and all the parts where really good. i think they may even be cheeper them machV.

Re: 6 bolt piston question

MachV was the most ridiculously overpriced DSM vendor in history. Right up there with Extreme. Maybe its different now though. I like SBR as well as most poeple know. I've spent over 8 grand there. Almost that time of year again where I make my big offseason order too...
