Vauxhall Xe Pistons (86Mm)

[speedtripledan]

Does anyone have any 2nd hand ones ? Looking at reboring my tired zetec to 2.1 and apparently this what you need.

I have a (3rd) spare block with rods & std size pistons (mm?).

I'll check it tomorrow for bore size & all 4 pistons

Pretty sure I've got a set here too if Bob's don't suit.

Sorry Dan, just checked and it's a full set of rods but no pistons.

Ok Steve no probs thanks for looking

Put the xe pistons onto silver top rods, you will have to open little end out 0.4mm. Then you can strap a turbo on it as the as the compression ratio will be 7.8:1. This is how i have done my engine, managed to get some steel rods that had been machined of Ebay. Will cope with 320BHP no problem
