Info For 7AFTE guys :), B16 pistons may fit !!!!!!! Options

[doGGy]

After then Fallenhero posted topic about Civic pistons i'v made a few researches

Basicly piston diameter (bore) of b16 and 7A are the same (81 mm stock)

Wrist Pin diameter is a bit different 7A is 20 mm and B16 is 21 mm

but this is not a problem The only thing that need to be cleared out is 7A piston height and b16 pistons heigh...

this way we guys will be able to use forged pistons from B16, and tehy are cheaper then toyota pistons )

towards the end of this post guys were talking about the 2zz rods, pistons, etc MIGHT fit no hard facts yet. http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=11094&st=40

B16 low compression pistons are low compression for hondas but due to head differences they might not be so low for toyotas. Any idea on the combustion chamber size difference between b16 and 7a?

yea, that's the point. You see, the stock pistons on the B16 are DOMED like huge. Thy literally have a /\ looking piston. The low comp ones should be more around the compression we would need for a higher reving NA engine. I just don't have the numbers to check on it.
