EA82T long skirt or short skirt pistons ?


Recommended Posts

anyone know of the differences of the EA82T pistons described in thread title?

 

rumoured to be two different ones for the turbos

 

The one below is from what I scored from an engine that had spider manifold - when i got it. Said to be the best ever EA82T before it burst a hose, spat steam - but did not get hot, or was shut down on first sight of steam anyway.

I have pulled pistons with idea of rough mock up EA81 using these and maybe new rings, maybe not, if new rings, may as well be new slugs on a rebore .....may as well hock a testicle as well .....

 

oh, looky here

the shorter one with wider hem is a brand new never used, never ringed family of four oversized dudes TKI brand

 

anyone got info on differences plus and minus??

 

Wait !! There is more to this ....see where finger points ?

Less skirt on the genuine long skirt ?

 

Now, just found a B stamped in the top of the genuine piston. Means it is for a B block eh ?

 

Forgot what all that important detail was about now :(
