are kenig hi comp.pistons any good ??

[G-GAURD]

are these pistons any good and will i have to make them fit my ca77 if there for a cb77?

If they are the high compression pistons, I'd steer clear of them unless you are prepared to machine the crowns and check all the clearances at least twice to be 110% sure that they are OK.

If you use CB77 pistons in a CA77 engine you will decrease the compression which will lower the power some. ...........lm

Ed,

I have very little experience with Dream motors. Are the Dream pistons much different to the Superhawk? I never checked, but always assumed that the CB pistons would have taller domes for higher CR.


Sounds like that may not be the case.

After HONDA lowered the compression (lower dome) early in production the domes of the CA77 and CB/CL77 pistons have the same height from the wrist pin.
The visible difference is the CB/CL77 piston is machined around the top edge where the CA77 is a full Hemi (dome) on the top. ............lm

Thanks for the explanation.

Ya welcome.
If ya want a cheap small increase in power the CA77 piston is a way to go. ..........lm
