Which Vendor/Forum Member Has Ported Pistons For Sale?

[Street Ryderz]

So I plan on buying an upgraded carb as soon as I find a decent one for a good price (?) so with my motor, the thrust pipe, the square head and this soon to be purchased pipe could I benefit from buying a ramped & skirted piston?? Thx

What pipe are you going to buy?I personally dont agree with the ramped piston when bulding up a performance engine and going through the trouble of setting squish and head clearences having lower areas with edges means that the pressure across the piston dome is now uneven and suseptable to hot spots on the thin edges that can increase the chance of detonation as I said that's my opinoin so I dont use them the actual effect desired can be obtained by porting so that's what I do!

Would this one be an improvement over the one I currently have?

Isn't that the same one you have?

The same store has those ramped pistons too! Do you think that since my pipe & carb wouldn't meet the needs of a ported cylinder it'd be a good idea to get this?

That looks scary very shoddy work I would not recomend to anyone!Maybe as an ashtray LOL sorry!

Well I know mine is a clone so I figured it has to look like something, wasn't sure if this was the original but I'm not really sure of much lol.

Hey that's exactly why I ask so I don't buy junk, I respect your opinion and I basically base my decisions based on the opinions of the experienced members and a bit of research.

Well I'm going to stay with this pipe for a little while since I just purchased it but I will be buying another one in the coming months. What do you suggest in that mid price range?

Unfortunatly there is not much on the market that actually works well is easily fitted or cheap unless you can hack up, weld and fit it yourself!Alot of us are still waiting to see if MZ Miami gets more stock of the mx pipe witch for pre fitted at $80 is not bad next would be the one that they also sell for $65 but I forget what it's called.

That may work well for a mildly done engine but look at how it mounts that one is meant to bolt up to a flange on the intake manifold it's not a clamp on so it would require a custom intake made for it!
